Corning Tower[edit]

Original - The Erastus Corning Tower in the New York State capital of Albany was completed in 1973 and is named after the former mayor of Albany, Erastus Corning 2nd. The building is part of the Empire State Plaza and is the tallest building in New York outside of New York City at 589 feet (180 m) and 44 stories.
Reason
This is the iconic edifice of the city of Albany. It's a panorama of 4 images and pretty good quality. Notable EV since it's used strongly in four articles. Negatives are the time of year and cloudiness of the day.

    •  Done... though it's not perfect. I had trouble getting the edges of the building to be vertical. And now it's a bit cramped on the sides, but that goes with the territory. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 05:51, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
