This Lipstick Building used to be famous for its innovative and original architecture but lately, it has been mentioned in the press mainly because it housed the offices of Bernie Madoff, who engineered a $65 billion Ponzi scheme.So how has your week been so far?

Beautiful building !
il est magnifique cet immeuble, j'adore son architecture très audacieuse.
it is this beautiful building, I love its bold architecture.
To me, it looks more like a basket with leather trimming. I guess it's a cultural thing.
Hectic week at work, nothing unusual. How was yours? Hope you had a great trip!
Love the building, my week has been very productive and I am glad Bernie Madoff's week ended in him being hauled off to jail! No caviar for you, Bernie!!
It's no wonder that a guy working in a round skyscraper ends up cutting corners!
My week has been great but not as great as yours judging by the wonderful images you've taken in Barcelona.
Interesting looking bldgs, I had heard of it but never saw it.. thanks!
So you are back... at least virtually!
My week was fairly OK despite the crisis! Sincere greeting to Barnie M and "friends"!
Lipstick building is perfect. My week is going better: Madoff is in jail!
Excellent photo, Ming!
Snazzy lipstick case. My weekend is so far awesome thanks to Mr Jack Daniels.
Great week and welcome home Ming. Sounds like you had a great trip. Thanks for the "postcards".

65 billion Ponzi? Imagine how many (or how much) greedy clients he needs to have... ;)
What an interesting looking building! And the US flag looks fantastic, really tops off the photo!
I always liked walking by this building.
It's a beautiful building! Hilda is right about the leather ... It looks like a telescopic crocodile bag with brown leather trimmings! Too much fantasy?
Good weekend. Sunday on the mountain... (you may see some pics on the other blog!)
My favorite building to photograph in NYC! I used to live around there so I always enjoyed walking around and seeing it everyday.
