The Flatiron Building
Wedged between Fifth Avenue and Broadway, this unique building is well-recognized around the world. A cute picture with the building in the background is a cool way of saying: “I’m in NYC!”. Can you imagine this famous landmark and one of the most-instagrammable places in New York City was scheduled for demolition? The building got it’s unique shape when it was built in 1902, due to the irregular narrow plot of land. Try to get the most narrow side in the frame, therefore, maximizing the coolness effect.

Sweet Moment

The Guggenheim Museum rotunda
I don’t know if you noticed, but we didn’t number a lot of obvious most-instagrammable places in New York City. We are trying to be “cool” and “unique” as much as it is possible for your local movers in NYC. That said Guggenheim is a very popular tourist attraction but what is very cool about it (among other things) is the museum’s rotunda. Its minimalist, geometrical architecture and white color will make a great addition to your feed, no matter the angle. Try to be creative with perspective and angles for maximum effect.
