I guess I assume that there are others out there who see the beauty in an old storefront with the fluorescent gassed signage, relics of a time when family owned businesses, sustained their neighborhood and vice-versa. They're beautiful time capsules, with their soot and carbon layered patinas, their names, inlaid on the tile entryway they make me want to imagine stories of who has been reflected in those windows over the years.
"Block Drug Stores" one of several store fronts I shot while in NYC, in July.
I recently ran across this video and book and thought I'd share it with those of you who also have a bit of a love affair with vintage storefronts.
love this project. love this book.
