Photos from the first day of my four-day trip to NYC (August 8-12). I took over 2,000 photos during the course of my trip, so what I'll be posting here are the best of the best photos from my trip.

As part of MoMA's "Home Delivery" exhibit on prefabricated housing, a group of prefab housing were set up on an empty lot next to the museum.

The empty lot next to Moma is where this is supposed to go. I'd die for something like this here.

Yeah, I've noticed. I keep track of my Flickr stats every day.

This makes Dundas Station / TLS look like a dream!

The Met's Yuan Dynasty Buddhist fresco is from Shanxi Province, as is the ROM's. It was donated by Arthur M. Sackler, a major benefactor to a number of American museums.

That is a cool building. It would block some of the view of Central Park from Top of the Rock though.

Good Midtown Manhattan pics!

Wylie: Good pics in Midtown Manhattan and others from your trip-I again take this stuff for granted living in the NYC area as I do. It certainly looked like a good trip...LI MIKE
