<p>Really seeing N.Y. from
the high points. The
lights are certainly beautiful
from the 102d floor.
Still keeping my fingers
crossed that some
day soon we can
see the city together.
The 102d floor is where
i marked on the card.</p>

Worlds of Love,</salute>

<fw>Empire State Building New York City. World's 
tallest structure, 1250 feet to the top of the mooring mast.
Sight-seeing Terrace at the 86th floor 1048 feet. Mooring
mast extends 200 feet higher with the second Observatory at
the 102nd floor. Best vantage point, to see New York.</fw>
