Architecture, Buildings, and Structures

I had a friend in college who was an Art History major. Many years later, when I still used Facebook, she commented that an architecture picture I posted had "perfectly balanced positive and negative space". Today, I was at the most over-photographed object in NYC (after the Guggenheim), and decided to make it a homage to positive and negative space. Behold: The Vessel! (iPhone set to really wide angle. The Vessel widens significantly as it goes up, but the lens overcomes that and makes it look close to cylindrical)

And if I could get that security camera's footage, I'd have a behind (or in front of) the scenes...

Decoration above the entrance to a gasholder on the site of the "Westergasfabriek", one of the former major gas plants of the city.

The site is now an event location and this gas holder is repurposed as a theatre/concert hall.

Thank you!

I love the keystone face - perfect for a gasworks.
