The Obelisk

Nicknamed Cleopatra's Needle, The Obelisk is the oldest man-made object in Central Park in New York. It is one of a pair that were built on the banks of the Nile in 1450 BC by an Egyptian pharaoh. This one was moved and erected in the park 1880. The sister obelisk had been moved to London two years earlier. It stands 69-feet high and weighs 220 tons.
I've never noticed this there. I like the way you've framed it against the deep blue sky.
