New York, New York – Manhattan, The Empire State Building and Times Square

18 08 2009

In New York, I stayed on Manhattan island, somewhere between Central Park and Times Square. I could take pictures in this city forever. For now I will share 5.

The Empire State Building and Lower Manhattan

I think this shot was taken from Brooklyn Bridge looking back up the island.

Jackie Onassis Reservoir.

Jackie Onassis, if the tour guides on the city’s buses are to be believed,  used to live in an Apartment block on 5th Avenue overlooking Central Park. Every morning she would jog around this reservoir. The place has a real serene quality in the middle of all the chaos that is New York city.
