Lower Manhattan shows how buildings old, new and under construction can coexist.
A glance up shows layers of age, material and level of shininess. A little architectural history remains, sandwiched between (and dwarfed by) all that is modern.

Amazing! We have nothing like that here in Northern Alberta. Sigh.

But Alberta has great beauty and something I need so see someday: Northern Lights! Thank you for stopping by.

Wonderful contrast. Too bad I wasn’t interested in architecture while growing up in NYC. I missed so much.

Same here! I do think it should be touched upon in history classes to give the students a sense that the class work is relevant and visible in the here-and now!

Superb example. I’ve seen the same scenes and always struggle to capture the dichotomy. Well done!
