Northeast corner of the IBM Building

New York City. I love the seemingly impossible overhanging structure of big glass tower buildings like this, Citicorp and others. In a sense it’s like having a covered vestibule on a tent or a house: the building is providing weather cover. But think about it, there is no external vestibule here, nothing sticking out. In fact, the vestibule is created by negative space. Genius.
it’s big, but how many people need to clean all this windows. ouhh ;-)
Yes, true enough Gedas, window washing on this thing and other big glass boxes must be an interesting job.
