Circles and Squares

On the hunt for photos that speak to me in some of the city’s circles and squares. I began in Times Square, then headed over to Bryant Park, and then to Columbus Circle.

Boring Canyon

Sixth Avenue in midtown is a series of boring boxes. Here is a case where the product is far greater than the sum of its parts. In other words, I dig the canyon, but each building on its own is forgettable.

Bryant Park
