1/6/2011: Citigroup Center and Lipstick Building

The Citigroup Center building (on the left, with the sloped roof) has a fascinating story. I’d explain it, but you can just go to Wikipedia to read it.

My almost-midnight snack run was motivated more by my need to grab a photo for Project 365 than by hunger—although hunger did play a part. I didn’t snack on a sandwich—just got some milk for cereal.

365.32: Bright Light Motorbike

Bright Light Motorbike, originally uploaded by Adam "Slice" Kuban C. and I saw this guy gearing up to ride as we got off the train last night. His bike is equipped with strips of light. His helmet also had strips of blue light to match, which he turned on when he mounted up. It’s sort [...]

365.30: Building

Building, originally uploaded by Adam "Slice" Kuban The deterioration on this building sort of looked like a painting of a lake with pine trees on shore.
