New York Street Scenes: Pictures from April 2011

As April ends and May begins, here are a few everyday pictures of spring unfolding in the city. While we're a city of walkers, the sights of New York are hardly pedestrian.

In some pictures, the natural world is barely visible, so it's the quality of the light that signifies the season. In others, new blooms are apparent. In all, this is the look of a city that's ready to be young again.
