Day 4: Library

Halfway down our Fifth Avenue adventure we came upon the New York Public Library building which seems to be about as massive as the British Museum. We explored the main entrance hall that could probably house a cathedral and, surprisingly, a few of the reading rooms. I've no idea how New Yorkers using this place to study put up with the crowds of tourists, like us, spilling through doorways with their cameras. But who can blame then when one of the reading rooms has a clear view of the Empire State Building through one of its windows.
