Down at the end of this avenue is the Chrysler Building–now I’ve seen it for real (even if from a distance)
There were so many inspirations in buildings and architecture it is hard to know where to begin….
Looking up is always a good thing. Love the rhythm of the fire escape and windows.
And what about this modern looking pair:
Wouldn’t this make a stunning Modern quilt? Just add color (or not).
The building on the far corner caught my eye for the astounding stonework visible just above the busses
Poor Deirdre…she kept turning around and I was taking MORE pictures….
But LOOKIT this design? Isn’t that breathtakingly, gobsmackingly wonderful? Think applique and crazy threadwork…..Sigh…. Inhale, breathe, GASP!
And these shards jutting up from between the larger buildings…
So one more NYC post after this one…the Bowery Savings Bank Building. How lucky we are to inherit these buildings and the crafstmanship and artistry that went into them!
