Very nice, loved the colors. Did that photo start out life as a transparency (slide) or was it a film shot later digitized? If digitized to disk, the lab did a really good job. - a.s.

“Freshly painted”??? Sure doesn’t look like that from my vantage point…sorry!
Al - it’s a Kodachrome slide. You’re looking at what the slide looks like. I haven’t turned the saturation up at all.
Eola - of course you’re right again, it doesn’t look like fresh paint, but I swear, they were recently painted then - my pics from my previous visit there, the units were still on the turquoise and yellow they started out their Power Pack life in.
I am not doubting you, I guess everything out in the “Big Apple” gets worn out much faster than elsewhere (I know as I lived the first third of my life in Yonkers).
