Taken from the top of the Rockefeller Centre (Top of the Rock) viewing platform. The Empire State Building needs no introduction with Staten Island and downtown Manhattan bathed in a beautiful sunset. I've cropped this photo for effect. No tripods allowed on the platform but I did keep trying with hand-held so have a darker twinkling cityscape to upload later.

Dating from the 1800s when it was originally an ash dump, New York state legislation earmarked 39 acres of land in 1897 for a botanic garden. Even on an overcast November day it is a peaceful and beautiful escape from the city with bluebirds and other beautiful native birds flying around.
