More Chilly Scenes From a Snowy Bronx
BxNN reader Dana Waddell sent us these two photos, taken from an apartment in Norwood. Dana's eight-month old cat was seeing snow for the first time. The houses shown in the second photo are on 206th Street between Perry and Bainbridge avenues.
This photo, from Carlos Reyes, was taken this morning on Tiebout Avenue between 182nd and 183rd streets.
The shots below are by Norwood resident Sally Dunford. The first is of building roofs on Bainbridge Avenue between 208th and 210th streets.

The ironwork in the third photo is part of a fence near Williamsbridge Oval Park. The final photo is of Montefiore Medical Center's parking garage with North Central Bronx Hospital in the background.
