I spy with my little eyes... Architecture

This passed Friday I was in Bryant Park hoping to get one last look at the pop-up holiday shops around the ice skating rink. Unfortunately I was too late and most of them had been dismantled. As I stood there watching the ice skaters enjoying the warm winter day, I looked up and noticed all the towering buildings through the barren trees. In this one city block, you could see some of America's best architectural structures; Bryant Park is a hodge-podge of architecture, style, activity and people.
