I must have been an unusual New Yorker, not only did I work on a top floor
of the Empire State Building (it was so long ago I don't remember the number
but I sure remember the elevators) but I visited the observation deck. I
did the Statue of Liberty a few times too. I guess I act like a tourist
even when I'm home.
