Union Square West between 16th and 17th Streets in Manhattan is home to five distinctive and variously historically significant narrow mid-rise buildings.
The quirky Decker Building (2nd from left, at 33 Union Square West) is now chiefly residential with a retail ground floor storefront. From 1967-1973 the building housed Andy Warhol's "Factory" studio, where, in 1968, he was famously and nearly fatally shot by an irate Valarie Solanas. The neighborhood was more colorful back then.

If you're doing architectural or cityscape photography, it's helpful to have a working understanding of zero, one, two, and three point perspective (normally taught to draftspeople, illustrators and painters).
This photo is an example of (mostly) one point perspective (depth), and I was mostly thinking of Vermeer's Little Street when I composed it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Street
