That's My World Tuesday

Yes, I've shown you the Municipal Building before—but 
this time I was on the other side of the island, 
by the Hudson River.  The building's five cupolas represent the 
five boroughs, as does the five-sectioned crown in the 
statue's left hand. (BTW, at 25 feet 
tall she's the second-tallest statue in NYC, and 
I'll bet you can guess who's Number 1.)

[You can see more of the world here.]

  5. Wow! I know that I have seen the building before but this focus on the tower is a great shot and taken at an angle to really see the details. Very nice. I like your new look and your banner!

  6. An excellent image from the other side! I've always loved the architecture of this yet massive building.
