ONE WORLD TRADE

  • “One can’t paint New York as it is, but rather as it is felt.”

    Georgia O’Keefe

  • “The city is like poetry; it compresses all life, all races and breeds, into a small island and adds music and the accompaniment of internal engines.”

    E.B. White

  • “I look out the window and I see the lights and the skyline and the people on the street rushing around looking for action, love, and the world’s greatest chocolate chip cookie, and my heart does a little dance.”

    Nora Ephron

  • “And New York is the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban night is like the night there…. Squares after squares of flame, set up, and cut into the aether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will.”

    Ezra Pound
