Set against the sunset over the Hudson, local organizations and officials joined the community to honor Lower Manhattan’s cops at the First Precinct’s National Night Out Against Crime on Battery Park City’s esplanade Aug. 5.  Proclamations were presented to Captain Brendan Timoney (at right in right photo), commanding officer of the precinct, and Captain Anthony Carter, commanding officer of  Transit District 2, marking the only serious part of a lighthearted evening with many activities for children. Not shown, but also attending were Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, State Sen. Daniel Squadron, and Councilmember Margaret Chin.
