WHERE WAS I? My location has been ascertained to my satisfaction! First-guesser Debbie, you're double fast hot!

The location is the Pentagram-designed Fashion Center Information Kiosk at Seventh Avenue and 39th Street. Luke's Roadside Attractions classifies it as the World's Largest Button & Needle.




















The eye of the needle is high in the air. (Apologies for the poor contrast.)




















Near the needle's anchor is a swatch of "fabric."




















Nearby is a sculpture of a man at a sewing machine. You can see more images of this sculpture and the surrounding area courtesy of Debbie Colgrove's "A Walk You Don't Want To Miss!"
