Oct 17 NYC

 Our last day in the city, and another walking tour, this time to midtown.

 We passed through the garment district with two street art exhibits.

Needle Threading a Button 

 

 The Garment Worker

Macy's main store

Empire State Building, built in just one year. It was also hit by an airplane during WW2. One of ours on a foggy day got lost and hit the upper portion of the building.

 The Flatiron Building, the original NYC skyscraper is currently undergoing renovation and is "wrapped" to contain debris.

At the Port Authority Bus Terminal we have TV's most famous bus driver, Ralph Kramden prtrayed by Jackie Gleason.

 

Halloween decorations in the city 

Five performers cover 92 different characters, many of them in cross gender roles. It's hard to imagine making WW2 a musical comedy, but here it is done well.
