This is my first post on this board, so why not start with a little tribute to the Big Apple and the towers it has become known for...

Hey, so will I! We're going up there on Christmas Day and staying for a week. Our hotel is a few blocks away from the Empire State Building. How cool is that?

Wow, NY is definetely my favorite city in the world. It is incredible to see so many skyscrappers, especially if one compares them to other, less important cities.

Love the density!
Quite a lot of towers.
Of course, since you're from NYC, I guess you already know that.

The greatest city on Earth.
I love the Empire State Building. The picture that has the shot of The Citicorp Building....there is a building with the beidemier top to the right of Citigroup.....what is located in that building? I also find the bottom of the Citigroup Building very intriguing.
There is so much to love about New York. I am going to have to visit and visit real soon.

Well, at least one of the greatest cities...
That's the Sony building (originally the AT&T building). Classic example of post-modernism at its best (or WORST!)
