The strange glass building on the left foreground is the Hearst Tower. To the immediate right front is the dark colored Random House Tower, 1739 Broadway, 52 stories, 684 feet. The large dark building on the far right is part of the Time Warner Center. In the right foreground part of the Calyon building is visible.

Hearst Tower — In 1928 a six-story base was built as the headquarters of William Hearst's publishing empire. Another 12 stories were planned, but they were never realised. 78 Years later a postmodern glass tower was constructed on top of the art deco base.

Time Warner Center — The modern twin towers of the Time Warner Center loom over Columbus Circle, a roundabout at the corner of Central Park. Built in 2004 as the headquarters for the Time Warner corporation, this is one of the more successful modern skyscrapers in New York.
