Anchorhead, your photo reminds me of Blade Runner.

Personally, I love NYC. I've been there a few times for work and even coming from a "big city" like Toronto, I'm always in awe of it. Of course, to me, it seems cleaner than here, but then I wasn't around for those scuzzy days in the 70s and 80s when it was a bit of a shit hole. But as far as North American cities go, there's no place like NYC. Wouldn't want to live there, not by any means, but a terrific place to visit. I haven't worked there since 2007 or so, but I miss it.
