Time Warner Building—First Encounter

Some New Yorkers enjoying the snow in Central Park.
Obviously a New Yorker who stayed out past midnight...
This is an impromptu snow sculpture to show off advanced snowman-making skills. That is the Metropolitan Museum in the background.
That is the Time Warner Tower in the middle there.
Yours Truly.

Yesterday I walked across Central Park to Columbus Circle to go visit the Whole Foods store in the Time Warner Building. By the time I got to the Columbus Circle I was too tired and hungry to take any more pictures, so I have to go back again to show my readers something. If you have seen The Devil Wears Prada, Home Alone 2, Die Hard With a Vengeance, or I Am Legend, then you have seen the Columbus Circle. Turns out there is a train line all the way from Columbus Circle straight to the station down the block from my apartment in Brooklyn. I think next time I am heading to work around lunch time, I'll just take the train to Columbus Circle, eat at Whole Foods, then hike the 30 or so blocks to work (takes me about 40 minutes not including distractions). I guess writing about Whole Foods isn't very interesting, but it sure was interesting seeing the people who shopped and ate there. Columbus Circle is an intersection for the major arteries of Broadway, Eight Street, and 59th street, which is a very wealthy area. So at least the people there were very well dressed. The Time Warner Building is one of those places where all you have to do is sit across the entrance with a camera and you'll probably catch a celebrity walking by. I saw the paparazzi hanging out on the balconies across from the entrance taking pictures of everyone passing through. The only celebrity I saw was Zorro, and that was when he walked by in the subway station (a guy dressed like Zorro, anyway).
