Trip to NYC this weekend

My son and I will be visiting New York this weekend. One objective is to take pictures of the NYPL in order to explain some of the architectural details in The Library Book. I have not visited the library since I finished the book five years ago. I felt as thought I knew the building pretty well, back then, even though I visited it only three or four times when writing the book. I wonder if I still "know"the place?

I also want to view John Carrere's grave in the Moravian Cemetery on Staten Island. Alas, that will not be possible because the grave marker lies flat on the ground, and the ground is covered with snow!
