Art Deco Town
Rockefeller Center
My friends holiday came to an end last weekend, and with great sadness, I bid them goodbye as they took off to their native France. It’s always great seeing Nathalie again, especially after several years being apart from each other. On this trip, she brought her friend Lucie, and so I got to meet someone who I have a feeling that I’ll get to be friends with, as the years go by. Since I played the tourist the majority of the time they were here, I took them to some of my favorite places. The Rockefeller Center reminded me, again and again, how art deco plays a major part in the city which I love.

From architecture, art, and everyday objects, New York can truly be described as an art deco town, and as a New Yorker, I am ever so pleased to live among such beauty, all year round.
