New Year's in the City

Musical light-show at Grand Central terminal


The empire state building


This is a quintessential NY by night picture with the cabs hustling by.



A glimpse of the Times Sq. Ball!




Wall St.


Beautifully lit NY Stock Exchange



Da Brooklyn bridge


No points for guessing this...


So we took the Staten Island Ferry and decided not to tackle the Times square madness. So we watched the fireworks from a safe distance. Although the ferry was still packed and the weather abysmal - cold and rainy, apparently the first new year's since the late 19th cent. when there's been no snow in NYC.



Times Sq. at 4AM - the city doesn't sleep, esp. not on new year's eve!
