Hofstra in NYC: Day 5 – Rajlakshmi Indulkar 


Today, our day began with an early morning departure as we embarked on an unforgettable adventure to the iconic Empire State Building. Stepping into the building’s museum, we were transported back in time to 1931 when this magnificent structure was first erected. Witnessing the fascinating exhibits, we gained a deeper appreciation for the incredible craftsmanship and dedication that went into its construction.

Our next stop was the renowned observatory, located high above the bustling city streets. As we reached the top, our breath was taken away by the awe-inspiring panorama that unfolded before us. Although the view was slightly veiled by a haze caused by the Canadian wildfires, it still surpassed our expectations, even surpassing the clarity of the previous day.

Continuing our exploration, we made our way to the Paramount office, where we were granted the opportunity to step foot onto the MTV set nestled amidst the vibrant heart of Times Square. The energy and vibrancy of the surroundings were infectious, making us feel like we were part of a larger-than-life production.

In a reflective moment, we visited the somber reflecting pools, a poignant memorial honoring the tragic events of September 11th. As we stood there, paying our respects to the lives lost, we couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of unity and resilience emanating from the memorial.

Our journey then led us to Hunter PR in the Financial District, where we were treated to an enlightening session focused on Consumer Product Goods (CPG) PR. The office itself, situated on the 68th floor, offered us a perfect vantage point to marvel at the breathtaking cityscape below. It was an ideal setting to absorb valuable insights and learn from industry experts.

Throughout the day, we were captivated by the rich history, stunning views, and enlightening experiences that New York City had to offer. From the grandeur of the Empire State Building to the solemnity of the 9/11 Memorial, each moment etched a lasting impression, leaving us with cherished memories of a remarkable day.
