I was in New York for a wedding this weekend and took this photo from (I believe) the G train, on our way from Park Slope to Williamsburg, in Brooklyn. I first went to New York for college in 2001, have visited occasionally since graduating, and the changed cityscape was particularly striking from that vantage point.
Of course, I got home and saw multiple links on my Twitter feed to this amazing New York Times feature about that precise topic, that the city has undergone a rapid physical transformation in just the past decade.
