View from Empire State Building

Times Square

Nighttime in Times Square, New York.

"Gee Officer Krupke..."

An almost stereotypical New York cop and a row of NYPD motorbikes just before the Columbus Day parade.

Car 54, Where Are You?

Columbus Day Parade, 5th Avenue, Manhattan, October 2003.

Radio City

Radio City Music Hall in New York. This was the first picture I took in New York.

Chrysler Building

The Chrysler Building; photo taken from its rival, the Empire State Building.

Yankee Doodle Dandy

George M Cohan, as portrayed by James Cagney in Yankee Doodle Dandy. (Fact: Not really born on the Fourth of July.) Statue in Times Square, New York.

Autumn or Fall?

Trees in Central Park, New York, October 2003.

Grand Central Station

This is Grand Central Station in New York. I wasn't planning on visiting it and only came across it by accident while walking along 42nd Street one morning killing time until a boat tour.

United Nations

The United Nations Building in Manhattan, New York. Looks a bit like the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey, doesn't it?

Yankee Stadium

This is Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York. They were playing the Boston Red Sox that evening.

Natural History Museum

The American Museum of Natural History in New York. This is where Night at the Museum is set. No dinosaurs came to life while I was there.

Guggenheim

This is a the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan, New York. (It is featured in the movie Men in Black near the start where Will Smith chases a criminal.) However, I didn't go in to see the art as I was solely interested in the building, which was designed by the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright.

"How do you get to Carnegie Hall?"

"Practice!" Well, no actually. You go north on Seventh Avenue until you reach West 57th Street just before Central Park and it's the large building on the right. I thang you.

Parklife

Bryant Park in New York, right behind the New York Public Library.

Stock Exchange

The New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street.

Ground Zero

The site of the World Trade Center.

A Load of Bull

The Golden Bull in Battery Park in downtown Manhattan, New York City. It's guaranteed some twat's going to sit on it.
