I shot this using this lampost : http://www.flickr.com/photos/lpq/2009226941/in/photostream/

Published November 1, 2006 on Gothamist

Published in the BizBash New York City print edition, January 2009.

I was on an early morning (6am) photo-shoot with the late Tod Coakley (Rest in Peace)
of JC Backings for the Adam Sandler movie, Click. This was one of the shots I took while Tod was shooting Central Park and the skyline of the Upper East Side.

Photographed outside of the second tier (restricted access) on the North tower,
Time Warner Building, Columbus Circle.

^That building will be, but is not the old American Craft Museum: In 2008, the Museum will move into its new home at 2 Columbus Circle in New York City.
