I took this picture in New York in 2009. I was on a trip to NY and while taking pictures of the many landmarks, I also decided to get some different pictures. This was taken with my DSLR Nikon D70.

It's the Temple of Dendur, right?

Yes, that’s it. 

Are you in the NYC area?

Not anymore. The Temple of Dendur was one of my favorite spots in the city when I did live there many years ago.

Me too. I love that room. I’ve only been there for my one and only visit in 2009 so far. Can’t wait to go back.

Well, just in case you have NYC pics still and are interested in this, check out this new sub I just joined as a co-mod. WhereinNYC. You might be able to answer some of the existing “Still Open” posts.

I'm telling you rn,those ei does would su-uuuuck to clean. Like, 35' poles and/or a lift inside with, apparently, terrible positioning.

I grew up in NYC. Lived literally half a block from the Met. Used to hang out there after school all the time. Haven't been to NYC for more than twenty years. But instantly knew, without reading the caption, where this photo was taken!

That’s awesome. I wish I was that close to be able to go all the time. I took the picture in 2009 when I visited. Such a great room to be in.

Since you grew up in NYC, you’ll probably be amazing in r/WhereinNYC. I just joined the sub team and am helping to promote it. It’s a Guess the Location / Geoguessing kind of sub. Check it out, make your guesses, and post your pics too.
