Some of its landmarks seem built exclusively to be gazed at through a camera lense.

Others peer at us from narrow streets, almost absent-mindedly. This one probably has good reasons to be shy, since it's where most of the mess we're in originates from:

And this other one... well, I took it exclusively to please someone amongst us, since it's the former vault of the infamous bank JP Morgan. The original site of the bank, across from the Stock Exchange above, still holds bullet holes in its facade where Mr Morgan was almost killed by an Irish anarchist (I think). The this image is the entrance of the high-security underground chamber where all the wealth of the bank was kept safe.

But as well all know too well, "All the king's horses and all the king's men, couldn't put this mad financial system together again", so JP Morgan left and now they are asking ME to take it over. Funny, the world, uh?
