^ Yeah, it's still and always charming and great to live but I'll tell you what, this is obviously the main reason why Freki went over there for his birthday.

That's something we don't have on our continent (yet). Still quite an ordinary urban concept as old as ancient times, just some streets densely built, but a bunch of these in Manhattan just takes it to a bigger scale, sometimes with some showy glitter like the pic I picked. So we're gonna have to do the same here and there, but even slightly bigger and more modern. Then Freki can stay over here for his birthday.

I love that new skyscraper going up at 432 Park Avenue. It's as slender as a pencil which adds to its verticality.

Enjoyed all these pictures of NYC, Freki! Thanks.

What a great place to celebrate your birthday! I´ve liked all the the views of Manhattan you took from the Top of the Rock and Empire State observatories.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

I loved all of the photos, but I think my favorite one is the 4th, with One World Trade Center as the focal point of the shot.
