A collection of buildings along Lafayette Street in Astor Place, New York City, that I took while on a walking tour. A lot to love about these buildings, but I particularly like their use of color. Why do contempo architects have such an aversion to color?

Awesome snap, amazing cityscape.

Can’t tell if granite-white building in the background is a modern structure or an older one that has been “re-veneered”. Does anyone know?

Thank you; thought so. Am guessing the 3rd (or 4th) building in, the sort of pinkish one, is modern.
