I'm going to start a series on this blog called "Show Me Your Window Washing Rig." This is the first installment. All buildings of this size have them, though you don't see them much and we never talk about them, do we? I find them rather beautiful.
The railing you see there is the track that the window washing rig rides on. The rig itself is stored in a glass and steel pyramid on this level. There's a giant garage door that opens and the rig rides around the perimeter, then back into the garage/pyramid.

160 Central Park South (aka Essex House)
I apologize. The windows were very dirty as it's a construction field office.
Central Park, of course.
That tower on the right is a part of Carnegie Hall--sort of; I believe it's an office tower they developed with air rights transferred from a parking garage they also owne(d). Little white building next to Carnegie Hall, below, is the Russian Tea Room.
