Under Construction/Renovation
Needless to say, I have been doing a lot of walking about.
What I've noticed is that lots of buildings are being fixed up one way or another.
This one is on 5th Avenue around 20th Street. I like the idea that the drop cloth is pretending to be the building itself.
A useful idea.
Two more pictures of the same building...............
Of course, in view of what's been happening lately, one feels a little wary of the cranes..........but they are fun to take pictures of.
This construction is in Union Square. The billowing plastic a contrast to all the green plants below.
New York is always renewing itself.

ReplyDeleteAh...New York!
ReplyDeleteseems so far...

Yes, the printed canvas over the renovation is a good idea. Definitely than the usual plastic tharp.
ReplyDeleteLooks like there is as much building going on in New YJork as over here.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say, watch out for those cranes! New York is a work of art in itself, though...
ReplyDeleteAmazing drop cloth!
ReplyDeleteSuch a contrast to Marrakesh!
Interesting that there's always construction going on in the city.

The mind boggles at the amount of yardage in that drop cloth
ReplyDeleteLove the drop cloth idea. I've never seen that done before. Crazy New Yorkers ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a refreshing look at the city, Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteI love New York, especially walking it early morning when the city is still stretching from her sleep and the air is crisp. Reminds me dearly of my Lisbon.
