Manhattan UFO

It was a cloudless night with a big moon (cannot remember how full). My brother and I were people watching in the apartments around Hell's Kitchen (mid-town on west side). The object came over the apartment building and stayed there motionless. It clearly had no markings and was featureless except for a band of orange lights that pulsated from yellow to orange. After hovering for nearly five minutes it began to climb until it disappeared.
