quite by accident, exiting the bloomingdale at the wrong side, I discovered this elliptical centrally located space belonging to the bloomberg tower complex. of course the proud owner of this structure is actual NY mayor michael bloomberg, hence the name.

designed by cesar pelli & associates architects, and finished in 2005 this building was nominated 10th best tower in the world. really impressive and pleasant public space, even without too much content, quite surprising for newly built open areas.
