Roaming lower Manhattan

I decided to take a short walk outside after leaving work. The weather was still a bit humid and "muggy" but overall it wasn't too bad. I really just needed some fresh air and to decompress after a long couple of days at work. Walking outside always seems to help give me peace of mind.

I enjoy walking around One World Trade Center. It always gives me an eerie feeling, having lived through 9/11/01, but seeing the progress of how far construction has come since there was simply rubble, then a giant hole in the ground, and now a beautiful memorial .. I get a feeling of joy as well!

Next I walked Inside the Oculus (also known as the Westfield Mall). I had never been in the building through these doors before. It is such a different, and awesome, perspective!

After walking back out of the mall, and around the Oculus, I decided to walk into the "new" Fulton Center.

They did a really great job in updating and modernizing this space!

There's something amazing about the Street Names in Subway Tile in the NYC Subways. It's such a classic look, despite how dirty it always feels! :)
