I love these Stacy Levy decorative pavers on the East River esplanade.

Diatom Lace is a paving project to show the diatoms in the waters of the East River which flows past the newly constructed East Midtown Greenway, a new park for the City of New York. 5,000 embossed concrete pavers are placed along the half mile walkway which hovers over the East River. Stacy worked with landscape architects from Stantec to create an artwork which embellished the park’s paving pattern with an ecological ornament of microorganisms.

They look like the Gaudí tiles on Passeig de Gràcia in Barcelona!
