The Flatiron District at night.

I consistently enjoy spending time around the Flatiron District. On this night in early December 2015 it's unseasonably warm. It's in the low 60s, so this means that the streets are even more active than usual for this beast of a city. I love it!

 

The above installation is on display for the 2015 holiday season--Nova by SOFTlab.

 

From the Flatiron District website:

 

"In Nova, the placement of scopes, or viewing cones, is arranged to represent a centralized proverbial North Star for the Flatiron District, with each scope pointing to a distinct landmark. In effect, Nova acts as an observatory for the “constellation” of iconic sites in the neighborhood: the Flatiron Building, Met Life Tower clock tower, Empire State Building, and surrounding landmarks."
