The bike/pedestrian path along the East River south of 120th St. deteriorated rather badly over the winter. There's been small holes cordoned off the past couple of years but these are giant festering wounds.
Over the past several years the city has been steadily extending the bike paths along the East, Hudson and Harlem Rivers. Someday bicyclists and walkers will be able to more or less circumnavigate the island along the paths. With completed sections in this state of disrepair I can't imagine that day will arrive anytime soon.
Looks like somebody stole the bench and took the ground with it.

Ha! I can see the movie with the bumbling thieves already!
