86. PASSAGES. Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. They got some nice back alleys in Beverly Hills, not many alleys come with road signs.
85. NEW YORK ON FOOT. The N Train in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Caught this in passing with my cell phone and was so interested that I planned to go back and cover it later with a real camera. Two days later it was announced that this and several other stops on the N had been closed for a year of repairs.
83. NEW YORK ON FOOT. DUMBO, Brooklyn. In a city full of neighborhood acronyms (Tribeca, Soho, Nolita), DUMBO may be the best (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass). Not the greatest photo ever taken, but it contains some New York staples: razor wire, a bridge, the Freedom Tower (under construction), retro industrial chic, and a classic rooftop water tank. An interesting weekend project would be to walk DUMBO, then rent The French Connection and see how different it was in the 70’s.
81. NEW YORK ON FOOT. Sunnyside, Queens in winter. The city would not be what it is without its deep industrial infrastructure.
80. NEW YORK ON FOOT. Battery Park. Looking east toward Brooklyn from the southern tip of Manhattan. The cranes are the Red Hook Container Terminal.
