Around the turn of the century, the Park Row Building (1899) was one of the tallest buildings in the World. Soon overshadowed by much taller structures, today it once again was in the spotlight. Of the afternoon Sun.

Running errands in the Financial District today. Always loved what remains of the conglomeration of small stores at the sidewalks.

My photo last week behind Trinity Church at Wall Street. The massing of the built environment reaches upward like a musical composition.
