Stuart, lovely building. Your pictures say "Batman" to me, as the building is very "Gotham City", imho. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, very Gotham City! I particularly like #2 - a striking image.

Big & Brian -

Thank you, and I had never put it together that this was Batman's Gotham City, not even when I saw a reserved parking sign for Commissioner Gordon.

Stuart - It's always a pleasure to see your NY shots, and these are no exception...esp. no. 2 (what goes on in the top windows of that tower, I wonder?). Reminds me of one of our favorite 'art' books - 'Manhattan Architecture', by (I think) Richard Berenholtz.
cheers:
Sam

Jacques & Sam -

Thank you. I guess it's clear that I have a love affair with this city. You can find nine pages of NYC photos (about 40 photos on each page) on our site.

Stuart,

Both images are nicely done, and as mentioned very "Gotham" like. I tend to forget the richness of the architecture in the city, I need to get around more when I visit, instead of my usual bee line between Grand Central Terminal and B&H Photo and back.

Thank you, and please let me know when you expect to be in town again. My office is in the Met Liffe building (former Pan Am building), attached to Grand Central.
