Orange-and-white steam chimneys are almost as truly New York as the plastic garbage bags piled along the curbs. This one is on Madison Avenue and E. 56th Street. One week later, First Republic Bank saw its stock tank because of poor investments.
Con Edison operates the world’s largest network of steam pipes. The steam system started with just 350 customers back in the late 1800s. At its peak in the 1920s and 1930s, the pipes had 2,500 customers across more than 100,000 commercial and residential buildings. Today, the network runs 105 miles, delivering steam to nearly 2,000 buildings throughout the city, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Empire State Building, and the United Nations headquarters. The company has five power plants throughout New York, where massive boilers produce steam that gets carried out of the plants, beneath the ground, and to Con Edison’s customers via a web of pipes. Actually, much of the steam rising from the ground is vapor from when water or other sources of liquid fall onto the pipes and evaporates. The plumes are extra big during winter, when snow and rain fall into the manholes. Sometimes steam leaks from the pipes, at which time maintenance workers bring out the orange and white “chimneys” to make repairs. They prevent passersby from getting burned by the steam and also guide the steam up so it doesn’t interfere with traffic.

First Republic focuses on private banking, private business banking and private wealth management. "Private" in banking in the code word for super rich. It's not a bank for the average folks.
Every other bank in the U.S. seems to be named after some forms of First, National and Republic.
This is a very bad photo. Lots of handshake blur.
