There is a bulky white structure in my little village by the Hudson river in New York just north of the Bronx. It has a 19th-century solidity to it and, on most days, offers a lovely prospect. As you descend the driveway, you see the flowing Hudson and the verdant hills on the other bank on the way down. Its past lives include stints as a brewery, Bible printer and US Navy office. These days it’s filled with the sorts of niche businesses that suburban New Yorkers need, including a CrossFit studio, co-working spaces and the karate dojo where my younger son trains. I take him on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, listening to him talk on the way there about what he’s going to learn and on the way back about how well he learned.
我的小村庄在布朗克斯北部的纽约哈德逊河(Hudson River)的小村庄里有一个笨重的白色结构。它具有19世纪的坚固性,并且在大多数日子里都提供了可爱的前景。当您下降车道时,您会在向下途中看到流动的哈德逊山丘和翠绿的山丘。它的前世生活包括作为啤酒厂,圣经打印机和美国海军办公室的工作。如今,郊区纽约人需要的各种利基市场,包括Crossfit Studio,合作空间和空手道Dojo,我的小儿子火车上。我在星期二和周四的晚上带他去,听他在那里谈论他将要学习什么,并在回到他学到的知识的路上。
