Roaming around the globe, a Google Earth photo car spotted on 5th Ave. in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

Don’t mind my missing thumb…
A Sunny Morning in the Lower East Side
Modernity, with people. I don’t recall the purpose of this building, but I’m not sure I care for the look. Maybe it does serve a function, other than looking like it is going to tip over?
Sculptures For Sale
Protected by a fence, a safe haven for these sculptures in the LES.

Fire Escapes
Fire escapes and a water tower spotted while walking around the LES.
