In the previous post I compared two images taken on the corner of the Bowery and East 4th Street made in 1977 and 1980. Now, 35 years later, I am still hanging around the neighborhood.

\n<\/a>Chrystie Street between Houston and Stanton — \u00a9 Brian Rose<\/p>\n

More architectural wonders arrive in the neighborhood. Ian Schrager’s hotel, 215 Chrystie — forcibly wedged into the urban fabric — designed by the Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron under construction around the corner from my studio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
