West Side Highway

Driving down from New Jersey back to Manhattan, our driver passed the West Side Highway and I am glad I was able to capture some interesting buildings.  It was a nice drive seeing all these structures.  I later on told Jerome about it and I asked his help to tell me what buildings they were

The Standard Hotel in the Meatpacking district. It’s notorious because of the big and very transparent windows that have provided many free peep shows to any passerby.
