New York City’s Biggest Selfie Spot
When it was being built, we wondered what on earth The Vessel was for. This circular stairway to nowhere is a New York style selfie-spot.
Behind it you can see The Shops shopping mall. Mercado Little Spain is in the basement. On the right you can see The Shed performing arts center with its movable roof.
