I love it when people come into a message board and immediately begin to mix it up.  I mean, Jesus, at least say hello!  Do you walk into a room full of strangers, pick a random woman, and tell her she's fat? - buildingcincinnati

Top of the Rock > WAY WAY WAY >>>> ESB at night.

And it was for family so it would've been just a tease if I told you I was coming ;).

awww man.

nice work as always tho. yeah you said it about top of the rock.

folks if you only do one of these, skip the awful empire state building lines and experience (although it is cool when you finally get up there) and instead hit newly reopened top of the rock. they have timed tix so there is no real line and you get much better city views, best of all including the esb of course.

Iconic places. Chrysler Building is my favorite scraper anywhere.

Those pics brought back a lot of fond memories of my good friend, Greg, now gone 14 years. We had a lot of good times there just walking around and taking it all in when I visited him.

Actually, not long.  I was actually just enjoying the sights moreso than just photography.  If I saw "something cool," I just whipped out the camera for a couple of seconds.
