#308: Cult Classic

Upper East Side, NYC
While I'm not crazy about the typography on this one, there's something so weird about this whitewashed setting and eerie orange glow that I can't quite get over. The place looks like the entrance to some minimalist Upper East Side sun cult. Wouldn't get too close to this one.

That looks almost like an inverted catenary. I wonder is there a word for an arch shaped like an inverted catenary...? ;)

Hmm. Inverted caternary sounds good to me.

Best wishes on your move! Hope to make it to tea time one of these days. I look forward to hearing of your new digs.
