Peek-a-Boo No. 10


Taken from the M23 (23rd Street crosstown bus) while it was taking on passengers at 23rd Street and 1st Avenue. The brick building on the right is part of the Midtown Plaza housing complex.

The ESB is a grey lady on a grey day.

Empire Diner


This statuette rests above the door of the Empire Diner on the northeast corner of 10th Avenue at 22nd Street. The food reviews are iffy but the theme and statuette get top marks. You can read and excerpted review here.

34th Street between 9th and 10th Avenues


Winter has not yet officially started, but is has officially started showing up in photographs as dark skies and low light. Still, she's a beauty - looks great in any light and any season.

7th Avenue & 34th Street



Apparently Macy's is 150 years old. Could that be right? Who knew?

Peek-a-Boo No. 6


From Washington Square, which you may be able to make out on the Street sign. Great light tonight - it did wonders for architecture.

One of the things I love most about living in NYC is the constant reminders that I'm here. Is this the way Parisiens feel every time they catch a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower?

Isn't She Gorgeous?


Taken from around 6th Avenue and 27th or so. Big ups to Christopher for pointing her out while I was scouring the sidewalk for found money. Look closely for the red light at the tippy top of the tower. It just barely came out.

Here's a close up.

View From 53rd Street & Madison Avenue

This is the view from my dentist's office today.

Let's Not Talk About It


There's a building going up on 23rd Street that I know some people are excited about. I hate it for obvious reasons. I'll never set foot in it. Maybe I'll even take up graffiti when it's done.

NY Post Front Page


She made the front page! She's not a windmill, but the photoshop touch-up is kind of cute.

Broadway and E 12th Street 94F

It was raining when this was taken but the sun shone through, as can be witnessed on the flank of the art deco base of the radio tower.
