Eyeful tower

Glorious bright afternoon so I checked out the new Whitney, between the Hudson and the wooded south end of the now substantially view-deprived High Line, with splendid views out in all directions and inaugural show "America is hard to see." (Judging from the photos I took, I find the mid-century easier to make out.)
