One of NYC oldest subway stations Chambers St Station, below NYC Municipal Bldg, renamed David Dinkins Municipal Bldg.
Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall and Chambers Street station was built for the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT), and was an express station on the city's first subway line. The station opened on October 27, 1904, as one of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway
But the one thing missing, the crowds. Thank goodness for Sunday, freeparking, and no crowds.
Almost coming to the end of my NY night shots. For this one I changed the angle to include the industrial feel of the Brooklyn Bridge for an alternative take on this iconic structure.
Empire State Building - Manhattan - Fifth Avenue / West 34th Street - New York City - United States of America
One of the most New York moments I had was stepping out of my hotel and and screaming TAXI! A cab came to a screeching halt, and I hoped in. It was awesome!

Probably only view that hasn't changed in 130 yrs.
I'm just trying to find the bridge
Has anybody seen the bridge?
Please; (Have you seen the bridge?)
I ain't seen the bridge
(Where's that confounded bridge?)....The Crunge
The only place I has ever been that even comes close to Times Square at night is nighttime on the Las Vegas Strip. The only thing New York City was missing was all of the aggressive guys trying to entice you to "adult entertainment." Didn't really miss that as it is annoying. Similar crowds...similar feel...street performers...definitely not what I am used to in Houston, Texas.
The beauty of Central Park in NYC is the land is as it was, not altered by man. With that if you know where to look you'll find these geological treasure left by the last Ice age, 11000 yrs ago. As a kid I always found these rocks interesting and wondered how many eyes over time gazed at them.
...would never pay the bills :)
I was in two minds with this photo, it was one I was going to post but keep private to friends and family but I decided to let it go public. What the hell! You all need to see how rubbish I really am!
It made me laugh for a number of reasons:
1. The strap of my Nikon so obviously in shot
2. I didn't even put the lens cap out of view
3. I'm grasping hold of my glass of red wine for fear that someone is going to walk past on the sidewalk (pavement) and grab it through the open window
4. The stupid look on my face
5. My hair looks orange in the light
6. I look pregnant (it's the floaty top and the angle, honest!)
I took this at a bar called 'Faces and Names' on West 54th Street where we enjoyed a drink before dinner at The London. I was SO excited! I think that's why all the wine went to my head :)
Hearst Tower consists of two sections, with a total of 46 stories. The six lowest stories form the Hearst Magazine Building (also known as the International Magazine Building), which was completed in 1928. Above it is the Hearst Tower addition, which was completed in 2006.
I spent the day last Sunday trekking the streets of Manhattan looking for photo ops. Here is the first shot of the day of the iconic Flatiron building. It is not an easy building to photograph from street level.
