Sculpture in Madison Sq. Park

I haven't been particularly fond of these metal sculptures that were installed in Madison Square Park this year, but I've been warming up to this one in the center of the fountain at the north end of the park.  The others still remind me of the wreckage of the twin towers... I wonder if that was the artist's intent.

Yet another picture of one of my favorite buildings.

Union Sq. Park

This building appears on the northwest corner of Union Square Park - or perhaps a block north of there? It was a brilliant afternoon.
