NY: Skyscrapers (and more skyscrapers)

[NYguy]

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...

[M. Brown]

Very Nice. Welcome to UrbanPlanet.org

[tocoto]

IMO it's the number one place to go to see skyscrapers. Just amazing.

[Guest donaltopablo]

Welcome to the forum NYGuy. Nice photos. And no doubt when it comes to skyscrapers there is no place like the big apple.

[Scott]

Wow,

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?

Nice pics for a start, Big Apple is always a sea of skyscrapers.

[Ruso]

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!)

Awesome pictures, NYguy. People need to post pictures more in this forum!

[NCB]

People need to post pictures more in this forum!

I agree, we need to see more New York on UrbanPlanet!

BTW, great pictures NYguy!

[Southernyank]

[wolfdawg54]

That would be the Citicorp building.

[Southernyank]

Thanks. that was really bothering me that i didnt know the name.

[Big Pete]

IMHO: New York is the ultimate Sky Scraper Museum.

[CusK]

New York is so much better than Chicago.

there just different.

anyways, thanks for the photo's. i remember the first time i ever saw NYC... it was from the NJ side. i remember thinking that everything that i could possibly imagine was happening on that island @ that moment. it's hard to fathom.

[UrbanCharlotte]

Well construction has started on the Freedom Tower. Man 1,700 ft. Lucky.

[Temeteron]
