“One Manhattan West” which doesn’t make any sense as it’s nowhere near any other addresses close to “one”

Holy hell what is that!?

Peaking out from behind our old school monstrosities (old hotels mostly) is a new school monstrosity) one of the Hudson yards towers with a cool little roof deck

And of course @Macys@twitter.com flagship store. I avoided no less than 7 people asking me to stop and talk out front. (Half buy my cd half donate to something)

I cut down to 34th street Harold square. A looong time green respite compressed into a few fenced gardens and lawn chairs. Pictured here is the side of the clock (which has a little play on the hour) with a view of the Empire State Building.

6th ave is ugly as sin, it’s a mix of older office towers and prewar buildings that aren’t well maintained. I’d skip it entirely if it wasn’t for details on the prewar facades. I mean look at that oval door and columns. Once upon a time that had to fancy looking.

Quick stop for a walking around cappuccino

The 7 train isn’t running and I’m too scared to city bike so y’all get my above ground transit adventure.

Let’s start with the beautiful @NYPL_Archives@twitter.com the ugly @salesforce@twitter.com tower (used to be a google building?) and the less ugly @BankofAmerica@twitter.com building (technically pretty neat)

It really is just massive.

The history books call it iconic but it strikes me as brutish and odd. None the less it's a fascinating building with vehicle elevators and secret staircases. You could get lots for weeks.

I work in the The Starrett-Lehigh Building which according to this is slightly bigger by square foot than the Empire State Building https://cornerbycorner.wordpress.com/2012/06/26/26th-street-12th-avenue/

It’s hardy geopolitical but change is in the air today. ❤️❤️❤️

They tumbled into a child’s toy that started playing music. They both froze and stared at it. Black cat found higher ground and orange cat kept sniffing it with a confused look on his face.

He did it three times in a row just now a feat that was quickly ended by black cat pouncing him from afar

Orange cat has been chasing the shadow of his tail tonight

Oh and when I started I was lucky enough to have 3 years of computer repair with light programming as a consultant under my belt so it didn’t look so empty. When you run the “company” it’s marketing and referrals not resumes.

Thank you in advance! 🙏❤️🙏
