New York City in late July (Part I)

Ah, New York. It really is an incredibly special city with a vibe unlike any other in the U.S. Here you can see every layer of American history more-so than anywhere else. So much character and so much flavor.


Upper West Side

This is where I stayed. It was a nice hostel on 95th and West End called "Continental".





I ate dinner here one night. Sadly, the inside looks absolutely nothing like it did on the show...


































Upper East Side



















Midtown













































































hmm...




















For a second there, I thought I was back in Chicago...








Heading Downtown...

















My third favorite New York building:
























Little Italy











Chinatown












See Part II as well.

Great shots. Thanks for posting those.

New York has such an amazing array of buildings of all architectural styles. It really is a feast for the eyes.

Wow!

I'm just getting started in photography and these are some unbelievable shots of NY. Very nice job with capturing many different styled buildings. The architecture looks awesome. Nice job!

Great album, US.

You stayed very close to my stomping grounds, BTW. When were you here? The Seinfeld Diner is about a 3-4 minute walk from my building

This past week for a few days. I must, say, you live in a great neighborhood. I had heard from some locals that rent around those parts is around $5k/month. How true is that?
