Midtown Walk
Took a walk from Hell’s Kitchen over to the East Side today. Here are some photos that spoke to me.
Three facades on West 56th Street. In the foreground is a balconied residential building followed by a rather generic glass-curtain, then the Carnegie Hall Tower.
I like this building, though I fear its colors may look dated in the not to distant future. I like the hair clipper-like cornice and its slender profile.
Reflections from the glass facade of the Museum of Modern Art. The glass is a bit warped.
The warped glass curtain facade of the MoMA.
The finale atop the Chrysler Building in the blue hour.
The top of the Sherry-Netherland Hotel, which opened in 1927.
Cars speeding along 42nd Street. Photographed from Tudor City, on the east side of Manhattan.
The United Nations Secretariat building, a 544-foot-tall, 72-foot-wide slab designed by Le Corbusier.
