Sign Overload!

Too many signs out the car window at this intersection near Stuyvesant Cove.

Long Island City

Looking from the 7 Train in Long Island City towards Manhattan and the Queensboro (59th Street Bridge) in the background.

Eataly

Line of peeps waiting to get into Eataly on 23rd Street.

Fire Escapes

Fire escapes on King Street

Concrete Canyon

Looking uptown along Park Avenue South. The Met Life building in the background was originally known as the Pan Am Building (Pan American World Airways) when it was built in the early 1960s.

CK Billboard

The Calvin Klein billboard on Houston Street was updated again. This was taken thru a tinted car window.

Broadway Diary

One of the mosaics at the 8th Street/Broadway subway station - Tim Snell's Broadway Diary series.

Flushing, Queens

Looking east from the Willets Point station of the #7 Flushing line. BJs and the two apartment towers may be the back side of Sky View Parc (a mixed-use complex still under construction in Flushing Queens).

Standing Guard

Guarding the steps on Washington Square

Big Dig

Taken from a moving "N" train... construction site just north of Queensboro Plaza... deep excavation with lots of existing pipes at different depths left intact.

Smokin'

At the southern end of Union Square - at 14th Street near Broadway - there's this building that has a weird clock on the front that blows out smoke.

New & Old New York

An updated view of a scene I posted in May 2008 - this time wider and from a lower vantage point - but, showing more of the new hi-rise construction that's slowly replacing the old Lower East Size landscape.

MetLife Tower

Former MetLife Tower at One Madison Ave from the Park Ave Side

Police Lineup

Police cruisers lined up along E. Broadway near Clinton Street

Subway Art

2 for 1: These guys are trying to find their way back to the Central park Zoo... at the 5th Ave station underpass to the Central Park

Life at the Top

Balconies and terraces at the top of a Lower East Side apartment tower.

The Willy-B

Closeup of the Brooklyn side of the Williamsburg Bridge. That's a steep incline on footpath on this side. My grandmother is said to have walked across this bridge in a hurricane once back in the '50s.

St. George Ukrainian

The front of St. George Ukrainian Catholic Church in the East Village

Tracks

Courthouse Square elevated subway station on the 7 line in Long Island City. I'm glad I don't live in that apartment building just beyond the station. It must be quite noisy. But, OTOH, if cable TV service were to go out, I could just bring a lawn chair up to the roof and watch the giant Fresh Direct electronic billboard a few blocks away:-)
