Cee’s Which Way Photo Challenge – April 14, 2017

Cee's-which-way-1

This challenge is all about capturing the roads, walks, trails, rails, steps, signs, etc. we move from one place to another on.  You can walk on them, climb them, drive them, ride on them, as long as the specific way is visible.  Any angle of a bridge is acceptable as are any signs.

Please pardon all the photos the Flatiron Building which is probably the most photographed building in New York City other than the Empire State Building.

Local residents used to refer to the triangular lot bounded by Broadway, and Fifth Avenue, and 22nd and 23rd Street as the “Flat Iron” (with its shape resembling that of a household clothes iron). When the building was constructed, the nickname stuck.

Here are some Links that will provide you with more information about the Flat Iron Building.
