Attached to the New York Life Building. Building that were so important they had their own private subway entrance (Bloomingdale's, the Knickerbocker Hotel, Rockefeller Center) are the coolest.
I walk by this often (work at 19th and 5th), and always marvel at it when I do. And wish I had lived in the City when Interborough Subway was in use. Alas, I am just a numbers and letters guy.

That sign is gorgeous, isn't it? But it's the *New York* Life Building - one of the best buildings in New York.
