Street art in Harlem

Found these on my way to the coast to check out the damage of #sandy. Some were found because a wall fell over and behind it was art or a shop is boarded up with art.

Sandy

I was surprised to have a Hurricane heading our way this past Monday. Harlem didn't get it quite as bad as other parts of New York. We thankfully still have power. All the subways are closed and filled with water leaving most of us New Yorkers footing it or using the good old taxi. Last night was a pasta scary movie stay away from windows kind of night. As we woke up today everyone is outside ( who isn't evacuated ) exploring and seeing the damage. Here are a few photos of last night and this morning around Harlem aka ghost city. I haven't gone downtown just yet .... Buses are stopped for miles and the east side freeway is empty... It's seriously eery.

DOORS

Style! Here's a collection of doors from savannah to New York that have style.

New York City high line

Every time I visit the high line there's always something new to see. The high line is an old subway line that was made into a park that spans part of the lower west side. It's nice to go there to be above the caos of the city. As you walk down it you are eye level to the tops of buildings and the amazing art painted on the sides of those buildings. The high line itself is also "painted" with art, musicians, poets, writers ・sprinkled with flowers and exposed railroad tracks that are incorporated into the high lines atmosphere. If your ever in town this is a place you have to go.
