Details of New York: Water towers on top

THE-VIEWFINDER-7061-title

One of the characteristics of the New York skyline are of course the old water torens on top of the buildings, counting nearly 20,000 in the whole city. In my opinion they add that old-fashioned look and feel when watching the skyline and create that interesting contrast with the modern architecture of the latest skyscrapers.

Details of New York: The fire escape

One the most characteristics on the streets of New York are the fire escapes ….which I really like and even prefer over the modern architecture. Funny story but when I first visited New York I just had to chill on the fire escape and enjoy the view…and so I did, bought some burgers and a coke sat down and just enjoyed the sounds of this beautiful city.

Details of New York …a category I decided to add to the blog so I can share some details of New York with you all. I find it such a beautiful city with character.

So here is the first post. Even though you don’t see any building, flags or signs you still see or associate this photograph with New York. I think the street view of New York is unique, with its well known yellow cabs, marking on the streets, buildings etc. In the upcoming posts I’ll share more details of New York through my viewfinder.
