p.s. ... I didn't see this link of John's earlier... with all the
thumbnails in google.
Now I'm thinking the one (and only ) day I was in that spot the weather
hid the Empire StateBuilding...
I took my photo (darkside camera) in February, 2008... didn't have a lot
of photos on that card.. I used to
take a bus to brooklyn that doesnt exist anymore, shop on atlantic ave
and take a train back (or vice versa) - that way
paying only one senior fare if I do it fast enough (transfer free within
two hours) The other shots on the card with that
date show wet sidewalks and fog.
Funny thing is, I'd never seen photos from that perspective before...
and I found the spot by accident. Also possible I
walked across the Brooklyn Bridge that day...
ann (embarrased by my assertion that the view wasnt possible -
although... I still wonder if he could have gotten that
much of the buildings in the street and the enlarged building.. maybe
selectively enlarged the building in photoshop?

Well that explains why I didn't see it back when I took mine :-)

I think you're about a block too far back. It looks like you were
between Front St & York St.
I think you need to be between Water St & Front St to be able to frame
the Empire State Building inside the bridge supports the way the
photographer in Dan's found image did. To get the angle right, you'd
have to be standing out in the street, down near the front of those
school buses.

the Empire state fromthere it would have been in
