    I absolutely loved this. I got to NYC for the ninth time, so I needed a new way to look at it. Mission accomplished. Can’t wait to see some of the buildings.

    Great video!! At 43:20, you must've meant the Empire State Building rather than the Woolworth Building as the one that eclipsed the Chrysler as the tallest building in the world.
    The terra cotta on the building on Pine would have been made in molds, which made it very affordable. A mold was made, the clay was molded into it, and then it would be baked, and the process could be repeated over and over. And because it was baked, it often lasts longer than sedimentary stones such as limestone or especially sandstone, especially if it's glazed and better protected from the elements. The cast iron likewise would need to be sculpted only once. A sand mold would be made of the original model, and the molten iron would be poured into it. And the process could be repeated indefinitely.

      Yes, I think she misspoke. The woolworth building was the tallest from 1913 to 1930. The empire state from 1931 to 1970.

    Fantastic video, thank you so much. So interesting. I noticed you mentioned you are using a gimbal now, they do take quite a while to get used to. I use the pocket 2 camera for my vlogging, I could not get to grips with the gimbal. Good luck with your channel, I have no doubt you will get many more subscribers.

    Why did you just skip 40 Wall Street?

    The green man comes from Celtic folk tails. The architect must have been Irish. Some connect it to the Druids.
