Columbus Circle, Manhattan.

    "From the ninth floor of the General Motors Building on West 58th Street, Abbott photographed Columbus Circle through the back of a Schenley Rye neon sign mounted on the seven-story New York Journal Building. "The Circle's statue of Columbus, built in 1892 to commemorate the quadricentennial of his ocean voyage, occupies the center of the photograph, but it is dwarfed by an even more popular landmark, the Coca-Cola sign standing atop the American Circle Building (1915). "The sign contained a half-mile of tubing, 3,000 incandescent lamps, and five miles of wire compressed into an area of 80 x 50 feet. " — more: Museum of the City of New York

    Hadn't realized this before, but this must have been taken from the roof of the New York Public Library's 42nd Street building (west side, facing south)

    The NYPL's roof is in the foreground. This photograph appears to have been taken from the north side of 42nd Street. Lovely.
