When Will The Roosevelt Island Cherry Blossoms Bloom? Hopefully In Time For Roosevelt Island April 13 Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival And April 20 Walking Tour

A reader asked:

When do the cherry trees blossom this year?

I've seen them in the past and it was a very pretty sight.

I asked Roosevelt Island HIstorical Society (RIHS) President Judy Berdy, who provides the annual Roosevelt Island Magnolia Blossom and Cherry Tree Blossom walking tours, that same question. Ms. Berdy replied:
Usually between April 15 and April 30. Hopefully.
Ms. Berdy adds:
Due to extensive damage to Coler Hospital grounds and Lighthouse Park our annual Magnolia Tour has been canceled this year.

We regret this cancellation. The Cherry Blossom Tour will operate on April 20th.
Take a virtual Roosevelt Island Cherry Tree Walk now.

Also, don't forget that the Roosevelt Island Residents Association (RIRA) is sponsoring a Cherry Blossoom Festival on April 13:
Team ABE will be stationed at a table at the 2013 Roosevelt Island Cherry Blossom Festival!

Come enjoy a day of Japanese culture, vendors, and performances, and stop by our table to say hello, pledge, donate, buy tickets to future events, and more!
RIRA President Ellen Polivy adds:
Sat. April 13th Cherry Blossom Festival

Our Third Annual Cherry Blossom Festival is scheduled for under the Cherry Trees in front of Goldwater Hospital. The vendor organization Japan Block Fair will provide food and vendors. From 10:00am-7:30 pm Rain or Shine our promenade leading to Southpoint Park will teem with wonderful Japanese food and fare. Performances will take place at Four Freedoms Park. You will be able to hear the music you have enjoyed with some wonderful new additions. If the weather is bad everything comes inside. If you are interested in working on the committee or volunteering please contact us at

Thanks for discussing your ideas. I'd also like to express that video games have been actually evolving. Better technology and innovations have aided create genuine and fun games. These types of entertainment games were not that sensible when the real concept was first being attempted. Just like other designs of technological know-how, video games too have had to advance through many many years. This itself is testimony to the fast growth of video games.
