The sky was still lit up for quite a while. It crossed my field of vision as I was siting in my car, and the noise caught my attention, as it was noticeable due to the late hour and lack of activity on the street.

After it passed thru my field of vision above the buildings, crossing from right to left, it seemed to “hit” around the garden apartment roof across from 450 Buel ave (PS 52). I was parked on Liberty facing Nugget Ave.
