    That looks awesome. What is with that road in the middle? It looks like it begins to ramp up in your direction while it starts out as an underground tunnel?

    Nice shot of a very BIG city! I was raised in New York City, but left in the 50`s and now I`m so used to the open range country of Kansas...I don`t think I could handle the volume of people and traffic of NYC.



    Cool shot tho

    I still don`t understand. If you look at the center of the pic, and then slightly below it theres a dark area in the road that looks like a entry/exit to a tunnel. If you follow that downward on the pic, the road in the center looks like it is raised up. :hm

    I think it is going down.. .obviously, we are only seeing it as if through one eye, so we don`t have the 3D modeling to make it proportional.

    The 2 roads on the side end at the opening to Grand Central Station and go east west. The middle roads, Park ave, are elevated and go through the building just above Grand Central.



    This pic was shot just before 8am. The streets are empty, ill post a pic mid-day at X-mas, its packed.

    What do you do that you have an office with a view like that? I wouldn`t get anything done. I`d be staring out the window watching the world go by.

    Very cool shot! I am only a few blocks away on 40th and 5th!

    East River





    Taken from the 37th Floor but in July-ish. We actually have river to river views if you move around the office. And the best view is the sun/roof deck a few floors down which is above an aprtment building! I wont post thos pics just in case it is someone GF that I took a pic of sunbathing! LOL

    Luckily I don`t live in Manhattan. I live on LI so I take about an hour train ride east and I`m home. When I first started working, I wanted to work in the city. After 6 years working in Manhattan......well, if it sank tomorrow I wouldn`t care too much. There are tons of great opportunities, anything you want to do you can, and it seems as everyday you hear about something new that you never though existed from mild to wild....



    How about a place that just serves Grilled Cheeses, or Peanut Butter& Jelly Sandwiches, or rice pudding? Yup, there is at least one of each in Manhattan!



    Shooting Range - yes there is one in Manhattan (Indoors and no it`s not in the projects)



    Driving Range - Chelsea Piers - drive golf balls onto a barge floating on the Hudson



    Ice rinks, zoos, ponds, seaport, the smell of stale urine in the subway on a hot summer day or perhaps the smell of it as you pass a phonebooth, ....$2 can get you almost anywhere......forget about restaurants and nightlife....It`s all here!



    That said, I am pretty much done with it all! I like to go home where it`s more quiet, there is grass, I am not hearing a horn blow or siren every 2 minutes, and I CAN DRIVE!!! I love driving so moving into the city where I would pay about $1,400 a month for a studio the size of some closests.....just not my cup o tea!
