Both light and wind show their effects in this winter night view of the the old Coliseum Theater on Pike Street at 5th Avenue (now a Banana Republic store). Leaves caught in an updraft have perched on a lower ledge of this lovely 1916 facade, while wonderful light fixtures illuminate the cornice and other richly detailed architectural elements. To see a view of the entire building then and now, click on the link above.
