MIDTOWN

The Chrysler Building is the most beautiful skyscraper I've ever seen. Art Deco is such a glorious style.


The marbled interior looks like petrified wood. Lovely.



Face-off between Grand Central Terminal and the Chrysler.


The Ghostbusters branch of the New York Public Library!




A 1911 photograph of the ongoing construction of St. John the Divine (the cathedral by our apartment).

Looking like a Picasso is not generally complimentary. I'm a little disconcerted by the neck similarities. Fitting that I'm wearing his favorite kind of shirt.

Bubbles from the 1940's.


The beginnings of Christmas trimmings!


One of the reading rooms.




A lovely pigeon...or, more like a dove with a smattering of pigeon.
