{"product_id":"staten-island-ferry-terminal-new-york","title":"Lower Manhattan Waterfront Buildings | Black and White Photo Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis black and white Lower Manhattan waterfront print brings New York's tall building grids to your wall. A strip of river and low shoreline structures sit beneath dense windows and long vertical facade bands, with pale sky opening to the right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTall buildings rise from the waterfront in this black and white New York photograph. The nearest tower presents a dense grid of windows, while neighbouring facades use longer vertical bands. I photographed the scene in 2011, keeping a strip of water below the architecture and a broad area of pale sky to its right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat arrangement gives the image a clear contrast of scale. Low waterfront structures, pilings and arched openings sit beneath buildings that reach far beyond them. The river forms a darker, lightly textured base, allowing the straight edges above it to feel more definite. Farther to the right, a distant bridge adds a much smaller line against the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI find the differences between the towers especially absorbing. The large window grid on the left creates a closely repeated pattern, interrupted by a wider dark band near its lower section. Beside it, narrower vertical ribs change the pace of the composition. The buildings share the same shoreline, but their surfaces ask the eye to move in different ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMonochrome lets those architectural rhythms take precedence. Bright edges and darker recesses remain visible without needing colour to separate them, and the quieter sky provides room around the dense cluster of structures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis photograph offers a waterfront view of Lower Manhattan for someone drawn to city architecture and ordered detail. My attention moves from the small openings near the water to the much larger grids overhead, following the changes in proportion that make the shoreline such a rich photographic subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2011\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"5 × 7 inches (12.7 × 17.8 cm)","offer_id":50571311251535,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 × 8 inches (15.2 × 20.3 cm)","offer_id":67592320090191,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 10 inches (20.3 × 25.4 cm)","offer_id":40617113583695,"sku":null,"price":34.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 12 inches (20.3 × 30.5 cm)","offer_id":67593021554767,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 14 inches (27.9 × 35.6 cm)","offer_id":40617113616463,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 17 inches (27.9 × 43.2 cm)","offer_id":67593863987279,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 16 inches (30.5 × 40.6 cm)","offer_id":40617113649231,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 18 inches (30.5 × 45.7 cm)","offer_id":67594604249167,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 20 inches (40.6 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40617113681999,"sku":null,"price":63.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 24 inches (40.6 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":67595548098639,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 × 24 inches (45.7 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":40617113714767,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 × 28 inches (50.8 × 71.1 cm)","offer_id":67600632119375,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 × 36 inches (61.0 × 91.4 cm)","offer_id":41185695891535,"sku":"","price":105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28 × 40 inches (71.1 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":67596427427919,"sku":null,"price":115.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 × 40 inches (76.2 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":41185748123727,"sku":"","price":125.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3 (29.7 × 42.0 cm)","offer_id":43805477503055,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42.0 × 59.4 cm)","offer_id":43804784885839,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm)","offer_id":43804841050191,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84.1 x 118.9 cm)","offer_id":67747648864335,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Lower-Manhattan-Waterfront-Buildings-Black-and-White-Photo-Print-1.jpg?v=1791967054","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/staten-island-ferry-terminal-new-york","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
