Trump Tower Atrium, Fifth Avenue

Theme: "The Donald"

#1 The glittering and exorbitantly expensive atrium of the Trump tower on Fifth Avenue is certainly not my favorite NY spot, but it's full of interesting photo opportunities. The woman and child mid-right in this picture appear to be standing on a piece of pipe, until you figure out where exactly those brass mirror panels are.

#2 More of the same : the people you see sitting at the tables below, are actually underneath the spot from where this photo was taken.

#3 Trump's idea of an indoor waterfall is kind of confusing. Which way is up?

#4 This looks like it's straight out of an Escher drawing. If those people get off the stairway, where should they go next?
