432 Park Ave is the second tallest building in NYC at 1,396 feet. According to Wikipedia, it is the tallest residential building in the world. It seems an understatement to say it dominates the skyline of Midtown.
Amtrak 663 leads a westbound Keystone train over Dock Bridge into Newark Penn station. This was pretty much the only spot of sunlight that I saw that day...

"Like a glowing jewel, the city lay upon the breast of the desert. Once it had known change and alteration, but now Time passed it by. Night and day fled across the desert's face, but in the streets of Diaspar it was always afternoon, and darkness never came. The long winter nights might dust the desert with frost, as the last moisture left in the thin air of Earth congealed - but the city knew neither heat nor cold. It had no contact with the outer world; it was a universe itself.
Men had built cities before, but never a city such as this. Some had lasted for centuries, some for millennia, before Time had swept away even their names. Diaspar alone had challenged Eternity, defending itself and all it sheltered against the slow attrition of the ages, the ravages of decay, and the corruption of rust.
Since the city was built, the oceans of Earth had passed away and the desert had encompassed all the globe. The last mountains had been ground to dust by the winds and the rain, and the world was too weary to bring forth more. The city did not care; Earth itself could crumble and Diaspar would still protect the children of its makers, bearing them and their treasures safely down the stream of time."
prologue from 'The City and the Stars' by Arthur C. Clarke (1956)
