We Call It the "Jenga" Building

in #photography7 years ago

New York has seen so much construction over the past few years it's mind boggling. There is a new tower going up almost every week. After the housing market crash in the mid 2000s there was a lot of pent up momentum and now there is a boom.

One of the new buildings that's gone up recently is the funny shaped "Jenga" building. I don't think that is its official name but that's how new yorkers call it :)

I like taking photographs of it at different times of day and night..

Once I even caught it reflecting clouds after a rain storm... light was reflecting off the glass panes and diffracting in weird ways. I've never seen anything like it before.

Such cool shots of it and this post reminds me I haven't got any shots of it yet,

I hope its not being rude to ask which subway stop I should head to for a good location to get shots of it ?

A great view is going to be from north west side so I would take 1 to Franklin Street or A/C/E to Canal street and walk south. Good luck!

Thanks appreciate that Will try to swing by there one morning soon :)

Thanks for the info, caught an early train this morning and swung by there it is such a cool building
