Anatomy of a Photo

Once again, our Anatomy of a Photo series. This time out, we have a panoramic view looking north from about 39th Street and 3rd Avenue. It feels like the rooftop sun deck of a hotel.   



First we have No. 25 and No. 5, offset by shrubbery and patio furniture.  
 



The Woodstock and No. 45, along with the sign.




In the center of the photo, there's a sign advertising the Beaux-Arts apartments, the Queensborough Bridge, and the Hotel Tudor sign.



More patio furniture. The articles on the table appear to be magazines.




Finally, the Daily News building, just barely clearing the awning.

  1. Amazing photos. The News building has never looked more sleek and modern.

  2. Photo may have been taken from roof deck of The Allerton 39th Street House, now Pod 39, which is a hotel at 145 East 39th Street between Lexington and Third Avenues.
