After checking out the Wall Street Charging Bull, we walked up Broadway.
Hello? Cunard Line? 
So this is the building for the famous Cunard Line
Pretty impressive brass doors, eh? 
Looking up Broadway
One final look back at the charging bull. 
While walking down the pavement, I noticed these strips on the ground. These had names on them, along with a date and a brief description of their action.
Researching this, looks like these are names of people who were honoured for their actions by giving them a ticker tape parade. Here’s the list. 
Petain? Why was he given a parade? Interestingly enough, this name is missing on the wiki list. I am not surprised, the man was a traitor!. 
Amelia Earhart. Gosh, famous lady. 
And somebody called as Balbo 
Howard Hughes. 
Now that makes sense, to celebrate Charles de Gaulle. 
And Nimitz, my hero!
And Halsey! another great admiral
Erm, i got distracted. 
The road leads down to office suites. 
Getting into the car. 
Lovely buildings, I just love this place.
International Hair? As opposed to Domestic Hair? 
Hey, my alma mater’s name sake!
next we decided to pop across town to go see the Empire State Building
