East Coast Day 15: New York

This morning we visited Brooklyn... I don't know, probably I didn't see the part I was expecting to see, but sincerely it didn't say me too much. After lunch we went to see Harlem and then end the day in Times Square. I called this part of the day "searching" the old New York in Times Square, behind all the glitters and the advertisement. I think Mick will like some of these pictures. I ended the afternoon with a coffee and a chat with Jesse Archer (http://jesseonthebrink.blogspot.com/), he is nice as it seems on video and reading his blog.

That's the old Paramount Theatre on Bway between 43rd & 44th-- It's got a ton of history. I think it was built in the 20's... I know most of the 40's Big Bands and, later, the Rat Pack all performed there. Now it's an office building with a HRC in it (which replaced the ridiculous WWF-themed restaurant that came before it. Sigh.)

Yes, you are right and you gave more precise info than me LOL. Also you like to find these pieces of history hidden behind the modern building? Elisa

Thank you for commenting, but it's the building in the picture above the Hard Rock/Paramount Theatre. I've been there a number of times for supper, but the glass building in the picture above is not familiar to me.

Do you know that building?
