(20,176 posts)Very understated signage and visual profile. It's a lovely McDonalds. There are similar ones in the midtown area of NYC.
I don't like the 2nd and 3rd pictures. The 2nd picture looks like the cafeteria of a federal low-sec prison for white-collar criminals. (Minus the artwork.) The third one looks like an airport food-court. Ugly, ugly and discomfiting.
