Where in Manhattan was I when I took this pic? (York: eat, metro)

[JS_423]

I was in NYC a couple weeks ago and took this picture. It is one of my favorite pictures from my trip and I have been trying to figure out exactly where I was. I think this was shortly after I had eaten at Gaia's Italian Cafe (inexpensive and highly recommended) on Houston Street in East Village and was walking west on Houston to find a metro station.

However, I have been trying to find the spot, using Google Maps street view, but have not been able to find it.

Does anyone know where I was?

You were in First Street Green Art/Cultural Park, located here: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=First...h&z=16&iwloc=A

Pretty sure that is located on Houston Street between 1st and Ave A. Much closer to 1st ave.
