Fire Escape

While working from Central park back to our hotel near Times Square we past this decorative fire escape that I found quite striking. I thought I'd share it with you.

Nice detail and pov

Terrific capture, angle, details, lines

[Maggiemae]

It is very ornate and very acceptable on the front of an important building - probably apartments! Nice and strong and good protective sides to it!

What a nice looking piece with all the detail - so different from what goes through your mind when you think fire escape NYC - you're finding such interesting shots in the city.

So glad you opted to share this with us — what a grand fire escape this is! If they have to be on a building for safety's sake, they might as well be attractive, and this one definitely is.
