Christmas Tree @ Bloomberg Tower

This magnificent Christmas tree stands in the belly of the Bloomberg Tower in uptown Manhattan. The silver star decorations match very well with the blue steel and glass structure surround it. It stands about three stories tall and is covered with thousands of tiny lights.

Merry Christmas

Happy New Year

The first 9 floors are offices while the rest (tower) are condominiums. It currently houses, among other offices, restaurants and retail stores, the headquarters for Bloomberg LP.
