January Thaw- Around the Empire State Building

After freezing for some time, temperatures crept upward today and you could stroll around the Empire State Building area and look around...

The snow is gone, as are the rogue patches of ice...

Just a short distance from the Empire State Building, an elegant old Beaux Arts building is all cheap advertising glitz on its first two floors-- all aimed at tourists.

On the side streets, the buildings vary widely in age and style, with all kinds of pleasant houses hidden away in what is surely one of the most obscure neighborhoods of Manhattan.
