I don't know why I passed this by without remarking on its overall excellence. Maybe I'm just too used to seeing skyscrapers. Anyway, the composition is wonderful. The textural contrasts between man-made and "natural" are telling. The sign in the lower right is icing on the cake. Of course the extraordinarily caught pigeons taking flight are breathtaking, strong and poetic. Sorry for the lapse in attention.

I like this busy landscape that shows so very much from foreground to background. It's a pleasure to travel about and explore all the detail.
