Chelsea, my neighborhood in New York City, is beautiful and charming at all times of year, but there is something about fall that suits it particularly well. The side streets are lined with townhouses, and many gardens are decorated with pumpkins and chrysanthemums. 
The restaurants, cafes, and markets are cozy on chilly days, and there are taste treats of warming deliciousness to try. These photos were taken at Forager's, a favorite place to buy provisions.
The gingko trees change color, and when the leaves fall, the sidewalks sparkle with gold.
