This morning when I emerged from the subway station to go to work, I looked up Park Avenue to see the Met Life building looming there over Grand Central Station, with the sun casting the giant shadow of the top quarter of the Chrysler Building directly onto its face. Sometimes the sights of nature stop the breath, and other times artificial beauty can cast the same spell.
