The Empire State Building, as seen from 40th Street and Fifth Avenue, six blocks away. I cropped the rest of the shot out, but if you embiggen, you should get some OK detail. I've been waiting for a cool crisp fall day to try and get some shots from the top, free of the haze that usually restricts the view to just a few miles. I haven't been to the top in a few years, last time it was about $13, plus you had to stand through a really annoying pitch for some dumb 3D movie about Manhattan, which most tourists usually pan. These days I usually suggest the view from the
Top Of The Rock, which just re-opened earlier this year.
