Good afternoon Brian England - you are so right-the masonry and the ironwork are really quite extraordinary.  I would say the building was made turn 19th to the 20th century!

This looks so familiar, Joanna! Was this a building close to the one your had been working on in the foyer, and one of the apartments??

Actually Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Realtor (503)755-2905 - this was not close to the Upper East Side - these brownstones are on East 50th Street - close to the new lobbies that I am working on.  So many beautiful things to see in New York, you must come back!

Oh, I want to! I want to! Seriously, I didn't think I'd fall in love with NY City the way that I did, thanks to you, my dear GF!! Much like you fell in love with Oregon in a completely different way.

New York has such amazing architecture, and that shot is perfect!  You are fortunate to live in such an incredible city.  I love visiting my uncle who lives there.

I know Beth Bromund - I love wandering the streets and despite the fact that I am a New Yorker, I always find new little niches and things to enjoy on my walks!

Good morning Joanna.  I wonder when that was built.  Just another example of they don't make them like they used to.

Don't be silly Ron and Alexandra Seigel I love that you fit me into your schedule so often.  Hope you are doing well!  Yes Roy Kelley I should - and you?  I love walking in New York in the snow-people are so friendly and you can walk in the middle of the streets-no traffic!

Hi James Dray this looks like a structure from around the 1890'-1910- a little nouveau and a little Edwardian!

Hi there Nina Hollander - it's so easy to pass these beautiful residences when we are rushing during the busy week!

We have 8 inches Roy Kelley but snowshoeing this weekend is on the Agenda!

What beautiful wrought iron work. This is a product that was very common in years past but now the expense of it is through the roof.

Good morning Debbie Reynolds and Grant Schneider and Endre Barath, Jr. - iron work is extremely expensive these days but for my  new project, built in 1899, we need to do some restoration.  However this is not the facade of my project-this is a jewel that I passed on one of my morning meanderings!
