DescriptionUnstretched. Image of a walkway in South Ferry Park with a New York skyline in the background. The walkway is wide, with a few small figures; two trees are visible on either side of the walkway and it leads to a red building (center). Beyond the green clearings, there are multiple buildings in various sizes and colors; beyond those buildings, two skyscrapers (possibly the Woolworth Building?) stick out from the skyline. The image uses a variety of pastel, muted colors including red, green, purple, sand and blue.
