        A thirteen year old looking out on that sight would be 100 today. Wonder if such a centenarian is out there.

        I liked the artistry of the White House better, but the little circles of light where streetlights are is interesting. And somewhere, Nick and Nora Charles are drinking martinis.

        It’s somehow doesn’t look too dissimilar! Imagine how much more those buildings would be in the 30s. Wow!

        I would have liked to live in the 30s, then skip to the late 40s and 50s.
