I recently walked along 57th Street and shot photos and videos of the mostly pencil-thin skyscrapers that have risen there and on neighboring blocks over the past decade.These residential buildings are collectively called Billionaires Row, the modern equivalent of the turn-of-the-century Millionaires Row of mansions built along 5th Avenue on the upper east side of Central Park.Among the buildings showcased are the three tallest residential buildings in the world: Central Park Tower at 1,550 feet; 111 West 57th Street at 1,438 feet; and 432 Park Avenue at 1,397 feet. Another skyscraper shown here, One57, at 1,005 feet, is thirty-first on the list.To provide some perspective, I’ve also included an image of these buildings dominating the Central Park South skyline that I snapped from the park, along with one of yours truly standing on a rocky outcrop with the skyscrapers as a backdrop, taken by a fellow but unknown parkgoer.(Photo/Words: © Joseph Kellard/kellardmedia.com)

Colorful Empire
(Photo: © 2019 Joseph Kellard/kellardmedia.com)The Empire State Building looking east from W. 34th Street and before the New Yorker Hotel, whose neon sign blares in the foreground. The iconic skyscraper was first bathed in colorful lights of red, white and blue on the bicentennial of the United States in July 1976. Since 2012, a computerized LED tower lighting system that can cast millions of color variations has illuminated the 102-story skyscraper. The building was the tallest in the world until the World Trade Center opened in Lower Manhattan in 1972. Visit the ESB website at: http://www.esbnyc.com/
