This part of midtown, from 45th to 59th along Park and Madison, seems permanently fixed in the mid-century modernist aesthetic, all about sleek lines, rectilinear structures, and a corporate-infused optimism. It's the world colonized by the Mad Men school of design.
I think I was thinking of my dad's paintings when I made this photo, which were a product of that time (e.g., this one, which he titled New York Landscape, from 1960).
