Details

This is how apartment buildings in New York used to look...not all metal and glass. Some of the new buildings are wonderful as well, but they tend to not have the attention to detail that used to exist. Life is in the details after all, isn't it?
The building I grew up in had a beautiful wooden interior like this in the elevator as well, until the late 90s, when the rippped it out and replaced with plastic. This elevator is graceful and warm. You get in and already feel at home.Imagine having paintings like this in your lobby?detail of dog from that wall piece...I am this woof.
