I'm not sure why, but the photos here -- looking toward Queens Plaza from the bridge over the LIRR to the south -- look crooked no matter what I do to straighten them out. Above and left, to the northeast.
Below (closeup left), on the southwest side, what looks like "Cleaning Time" worn off around a missing clock on a building in front of Citicorp.
And below, the always hectic sight of traffic hurtling through the Plaza beneath the MTA tracks.
