New York 2003

The memories of 11 September are present everywhere. In the whole city the signs can’t be avoided but near the site of the WTC it is enormous, flags, letters, pictures of the victims and drawings.
We had perfect weather almost all the time. In Central Park everything was fresh green and flowering. With a clear blue sky and the whites and pinks and green
Three New York landmarks. From left to right, the Flatiron Building, the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building. The Flatiron is the oldest and has a strange triangular shape. The Empire State the highest and the most famous, but too much of a tourist attraction. The Chrysler building is still in use as an office building and apart from the lobby can’t be visited. In my eyes it is the most beautiful skyscraper in New York.
Some New York building have beautiful ornament on them. All these ornaments are from the Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall.
