Seeing this door made brought to mind a popular 1956 song recorded by Jim Lowe, called The Green Door. Lowe's version reached number one on the U.S. pop chart. The lyrics describe the allure of a mysterious private club with a green door, behind which "a happy crowd" play piano, smoke and "laugh a lot", and the singer is not allowed in. Lowe also was a disc jockey with WNEW AM (1130) in NYC and also worked at WNBC AM in NYC.
For others who may also recall this "oldie", here it is again.
Enjoy your weekend, Everyone!

I would hate to be the person rushing to leave the building and hurry through this door!!
Certainly made me smile.
Watch your step!
Inviting beautiful door,
I wish I could walk in air and reach to this door to open and explore the mystery behind it.
Thank you for sharing this unique view my friend!
I love finding things like this and then studying the architecture to see where the old balcony- fire escape (?)- or whatever was attached. This one is kind of easy. Just wonder what kind of building it was...
I remember that song well! Funny picture.
