So we all know that it’s the city that never sleeps. And while it is not sleeping, it is also the city that is beautifully lit – especially at this time of year. Here are some pics from New York City in the night time, when the winter chill has me zipping my jacket up past my chin and hurriedly snapping photos so I can put my warm gloves back on. (That may explain why some of these are a little blurry!)
Good night, Time Warner Center. I couldn’t really catch your beautiful colour-changing lights here, but you know you’re gorgeous. And you’re one of my favourite places to soak up the hustle & bustle of NYC.Good night, random festively dressed hotel on Central Park. You look very pretty. And kind of like you’re wearing a fairy light witch’s hat…Good night, Public Library. You are such a beautiful building and you look very cool with your fancy coloured lights.Good night, Harry Winston. Your festive lights look as lovely as the jewellery that you sell. Like very classy diamond accessories for your building, as it were.Good night, Buckyball. You’re a fabulous colour-changing installation at Madison Square Park and you’ve even brought your own ‘zero gravity’ curved benches, so that viewers can lie back and marvel at your cleverness. And you make the wait for burgers at the Shake Shack much more fun.
Good night, Sparks (even though it is 9.08am as I write this)
Hi Cate, I will be in San Francisco on Friday. Are you visiting that side of the country before you leave the US ?
Hello! Just a flight transfer at LAX, I’m afraid. Rats, so near and yet so far!
I will be in LAX on Friday also !! from about 10am until 2pm. Does that work for you ?
