As some know, the apartment in Chelsea has a few direct views of the Empire State Building-I'm so used to seeing it, especially lit up at night that I kind of take it for granted. Something I haven't seen in a long time-especially with the amount of time I've spent in the country this past year is the Empire State Building, at night, with it's uplighting off-so that only a few internal lights are on and only on certain floors and the ring of lights on right above the observation tower at the very top. I just looked out the window in the kitchen to see that, and wow, there's just something surreal about all the darkness with the lighted "crown" so to speak. I stared at the shadow like outline of the building and I don't know why, but it made me feel really happy.
