A few days earlier, my brother, a resident of Tarrytown, came down to Manhattan to drive us to his home to see his new daughter. When we drove on the Queensboro Bridge to get to his home, I said to myself that I want to take some photos of the bridge when I come back to Manhattan. So one morning I took the bus and subway from our hotel at West 96th Street and Broadway down to East 63rd Street and York Avenue to admire the bridge.

The Poughkeepsie Railroad Bridge's importance was severely reduced in 1960. Later, on May 8, 1974, the Railroad Bridge suffered a wooden-tie fire that damaged about 700 feet of the bridge decking. As years passed The Poughkeepsie-Highland Railroad Bridge Company, Inc., was delighted to turn this wonder of Hudson Valley History into a pedestrian and cyclist walkway. As of September 5, 2009, conversion work and repairs to structural steel and the laying of concrete slabs for the walkway were completed. The volunteer head of the "Walkway", as it is known locally, said in 2008, "We think people will come from all over [to enjoy its magnificence]"

A view of the large floating platform in the Marina Bay area in Singapore with the Mandarin Oriental hotel in the background and some metal structures in the front and a crane as a part of some construction activities. This Float@Marina Bay is the world's largest floating platform, and is also known as the Marina Bay Floating Platform, being located on the Marina reservoir in Marina Bay in Singapore. The platform is larger than a soccer field, and is made of steel. The seating at the gallery on the float has a seating capacity of 30,000 people and can bear a total weight of 1070 tonnes. The platform measures a length of 120 meters and a width of 83 meters. The stadium was created in the year 2007 and has been used for a number of different events such as concerts, exhibitions, arts and cultural performances, and sports events. The stadium was used for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics. One reason for the location of this platform was because of the incredible skyline of Singapore seen from here. The platform was initially designed to use 200 pontoons, but the design was modified to finally use 15 pontoons.

The Abraj Al-Bait Towers, also known as the Mecca Royal Hotel Clock Tower, is a building complex in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. These towers are a part of the King Abdulaziz Endowment Project that strives to modernize the holy city in catering to the pilgrims. The complex holds several world records, the tallest clock tower in the world, the world's largest clock face and the building with the world's largest floor area. The complex's hotel tower became the second tallest building in the world in 2012, surpassed only by Dubai's Burj Khalifa. The building complex is meters away from the world's largest mosque and Islam's most sacred site, the Masjid al Haram.
I took this snap last year while the steel structure work was ongoing. This part was done by our Company (ABG). You can see two Bangladeshi labor faces in this picture. They were setting up the steel beams by the help of the Tower Crane (one of the toughest part of that subjected work). I feel to be proud that 85% of the manpower was Bangladeshi. Our brothers did this historical construction work during the month of Ramadan and the temperature of Makkah was 55 degree that Time.
I don't mean ridiculous as in bad, necessarily. I wish it weren't at a mall.
Why wouldn't those two tourists look at me.
