The city looks beautiful by night. Bright lights, tall & awesome buildings...and of course the constant Buzz of Life.

Beautiful shots! I especially like the one with St. Pauls spire in it!

That's a very healing shot of the WTC site - the lights soften it and give one hope.

All that, and no Woolworth building... Where will you go for that? :-)

Nice, Mike! I took some shots from the same hotel in March -- check out the progress in the construction! http://www.joesnyc.streetnine.com/archives/wtc_march_04_2004-march_22_2004_37.html And looking straight down the next morning: http://www.joesnyc.streetnine.com/archives/wtc_path_station-april_14_2004_33.html So what was up to take you to the 25th floor of the Millennium?

Simply beautiful and uplifting. Since 9/11 I can't bring myself to go to Ground Zero. How immense it is! Thanks for the perspective. This is the city of my youth.

They are really quite lovely.
The glowing and warm quality of the images makes me think of Blade Runner if it had been on Prozac.
But really, very nice images.

Very nice images Mike!!! I became a big fan of your photolog!! I'm from São Paulo, Brazil and I saw many things in common between our landscapes...but i guess that the brooklyn is better than here...

First time on site... Ilove the Warnig Gates pic you took with the old run down building between the split sign...... For some reason i catch an incredible amount of symbolism in this picture(with regards to my own personal life experiences.)
