Giant Needle and Button Was out enjoying New York City with some friends when I came across this monster of a sculpture. Found in a book I own.
Quite massive and hard to miss... Well that is unless you're like me (missed it the first time around... saw it on our way back through, due to never being in New York City and constantly looking up at the tall buildings). [Tyler Salls, 12/24/2008][RA: And nearby is a life-sized statue of a garment worker toiling at a sewing machine. There's a 22-ft. tall sewing needle sculpture in the Garment District in Kansas City, MO.]
