Top of the world, Ma. (Villa-Lobos? Major swoon.)
What a fun place to live, and what a view! Great shot!
That birds eye view of a roofshot is as always priceless. Nice one.
Would love to see inside the Ansonia -- fabulous view of its background buildings -- barbara
Nice! I'm blanking on those two towers to the right. They look "famous," but ????
Great view. The city looks so colorful!
Great building! Great photo too.
I'm always intrigued, curious about the origin of the name "Ansonia"... maybe for has "sonia" on its name...
There is noticeably a bundle to know about this. I assume you made certain nice points in features also.
