colorful cast-iron facades on buildings in soho. 

"SoHo boasts the greatest collection of cast-iron architecture in the world. Approximately 250 cast iron buildings stand in New York City and the majority of them are in SoHo. Cast iron was initially used as a decorative front over a pre-existing building. With the addition of modern, decorative facades, older industrial buildings were able to attract new commercial clients. Most of these facades were constructed during the period from 1840 to 1880. In addition to revitalizing older structures, buildings in SoHo were later designed to feature the cast iron."

Boardwalk Empire film set. Rockaway Beach.

Heres an image gallery from a film set I wandered onto recently. Yet another set for the show Boardwalk Empire. Amazing work as always. The set dressers must have access to a time machine.

I keep stumbling upon these sets all over Brooklyn and Queens. These images are from Rockaway Beach near the destroyed sections of boardwalk.

The people march into Times Square bringing it to a stand still for over an hour until deciding to continue marching to the Bronx. By the end of the night the group made it to approximately 168th street. (remember it started at 14th street union square. do the math) 

Thousands of outraged protesters in NYC take the streets in response to George Zimmerman walking free after the death of Trayvon Martin. Demonstrators marched over one hundred blocks from Union Square, Alphabet City, Times Square, and then uptown into the Bronx.
