This Week in Awesome (9/17/11)

These beautiful Kodachrome color photos document a trip to New York in the early 1940s. Amazing to see. (Mail Online; hat tip to Dave)

And finally this week, if you're feeling stressed, just stare at this video of a water fountain in a train station in Osaka. (Freshome via Gizmodo)
