I was yelled at by security and threatened with arrest for taking photos of the Stamford Cone[1], which is on the property of UBS Bank[2].
I was on the sidewalk between the trees and the road that you can clearly see in the Street View link, with my little point & shoot Sony camera when the security guard came out of the building yelling. This must have been 2003-2004.

- koenigdavidmj 10y agoI'm surprised at the guard being involved, but it's possible this could be for copyright reasons rather than security. The Portlandia statue near Portland's city hall, for instance, is noted for its artist's heavyhanded protection of his rights (at least for a piece of public art).
