Air Waves NYC

All that architecture, the geometry, and then laundry? Beats going down to laundry facilities in the basement. This scene is from lower Manhattan’s West Side. The World Trade Towers beyond rise above the atmospheric mist of the city.
Background
The lower Manhattan area contains many old and historic building and sites, Though this district has a few modern skyscrapers, the character of the neighborhood is derived from the flourishing retail trade: New Jersey commuters returning home after a day’s work in the city often find it practicable to buy their necessities here.
Tunnels, railroads, ferryboats, subways, and road traffic have made this section one of the most important transit centers. Close to the river and harbor, it is also easily accessible to all parts of the city, making it a natural site for the largest fruit and produce market in the world.
