Faces of New York


Building faces, that is.  Some buildings have really good skin, and when the light is right they give off a warmth and depth not normally associated with stone, glass or steel.

Here are a few sublime surfaces.  My favorite, above, is the St. Regis on 55th off Fifth Ave.; below, down near the bottom of Manhattan, is the curving face of 26 Broadway.
