I remember being in London and counting the cranes and other machinery visible from the ground…madness! Cool in one way, nothing stays the same for long.

I feel like living in NYC accustomed me to seeing things change constantly. Seems like the only thing about NYC that stays the same is that every 10 years, just about everything changes completely.

Yet, I still go back to my favorite places — the ones that still exist anyway — when I go back to visit.

Shouldn’t there be some sort of happy medium between the two?

Oh I work in the lighthouse, not live! Although damn, that’d be amazing. Feels like the whole project is entirely rushed to me…they could do better with more time.

That’s too bad. Modern building are usually so dul (and ugly)l. They should save that lighthouse!
