The lobby of the Woolworth Building is one of only a handful of interior spaces in New York City to hold landmark status. Untapped Cities looks at its three ceiling sections: a vaulted mosaic arcade in Byzantine style, a stained-glass skylight ringed with the names of great commercial nations and coded "W's" for Woolworth, and coffered plaster ceilings made to look like wood specifically to prevent fire. #NYCHistory #Architecture #UntappedNY #WoolworthBuilding https://www.untappedcities.com/hidden-symbols-in-the-gorgeous-ceilings-of-the-woolworth-building-in-nyc/

If you are looking for cherry blossoms in New York City, Untapped Cities has put together a guide covering spots from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and Green-Wood Cemetery to Sakura Park in Manhattan, Hunter's Point South in Queens, and on Staten Island at Snug Harbor and Silver Lake Park. Some of the trees trace back to Japan's original 1912 gift to the United States. A beautiful and practical read for spring. #CherryBlossoms #NYC #StatenIsland #UntappedNY #Spring https://www.untappedcities.com/cherry-blossom-trees-in-nyc-2/
