Everything but the kickstand


Low resale value? (Good Halloween colors.)

The Viet Cafe Shar-Peis


Actually I think there are three of them.

Layers


This is probably as close to a double exposure as a digital camera gets. I was pretty negative on it at first because obviously it's not a picture of the dry cleaners like I was aiming for, but I do like how busy it is.

Umbrella massacre


Today was a total slaughter. No mortal umbrella can withstand the might of the lower Manhattan wind tunnels.

Daytona on 6th Ave.


Last I looked this was called The Tomato Restaurant. Before that it was something like Big Tomato or something. Remember when it was called Lox Around the Clock?

Planes


Something went wrong with the color here, but the point is the overlapping planes.
Greenwich Street.

Smile


Is it more or less creepy when Big Brother is polite?

Twilight over Times Square












I went to another function at the Reuters building last night. I had the lens shaded, but still got that weird glare. I think it's coming from the outside.

When in midtown...

... take a picture of that new skyscraper. Strange how the building looks a lot like the scaffolding.



Lobby to be.

Lake Zero

From last week's rain, "the tub" at Ground Zero gave its name new meaning.

Anchor




Seaport of course.

Holes filled

Naturally I have a million of these, but here are just a few from the Rector Street pedestrian bridge to point out that those last few windows that were left out for whatever reason have now been filled in. So there it is, that's what it's going to look like.

Last tree standing

I took these during the demolition of 475 Greenwich at Canal. I like the lone tree battling the bulldozer and I like how the block in the background stands alone when you look at it from the east. That said, I'm not sure I like any of these photos. But this blog being free infinite space and a learning project, I'm putting them all up. Here's a picture before the demolition and this is the drawing of the future plan. Discussion here.
