Interesting building features in the city
Nothing much exciting to write about today I had a busy day with meetings and such and didnt get out for a photo walk as such so just a few quick photos taken while walking around today
Today while walking I was looking up at some of the cool details on buildings and tats my focus for tonight's post starting with a couple of shots of the top of the Central Synagogue which is on 54th Street between Lexington and Park Ave

These are on the roof of the Central Synagogue at 652 Lexington Ave, which as built between 1700 and 1872 and was designed by Henry Fernbach in the Moorish Revival style, its hard to get shots of the whole Synagogue so for these shots I focused on these features on the top of the building, which I think are called globular domes with some cool details I think

Some shots on my little walks today
I guess I started looking up as I walked through the main concourse in Grand Central this morning and hence this shot I know many commuters are in such a rush when they pass through this area on the way to or from work that they probably seldom look up and see the impressive ceiling and details here, but it is something I do appreciate each day I pass through here

And finishing off with a new building going up on 46th Street, The structure you see is the external Elevators they use to take people and equipment up to the various levels o the building, I know its hard to see but at the top level ( well the second level Below the top level with the square like boxes) of the elevator you can see a order but of course up there he looks so small
