The Bronx Botanical Garden is a place my father and I have been going to since I was a child. Here’s a photograph I took of him here. It has hundreds of species of trees and flowers. Sitting in the middle of the Bronx, it’s most recognizable as a green oasis from the grays and concrete of city life.

New York / Place

I have been watching this house deteriorating and transforming for years. I shot this last summer and was completely captivated with how many shades of luminous green vines had taken it over. If you want to see this house you better go quickly---it is supposed to be demolished by March 1 2012.

New York / Art Centre

Best place to think about space.

New York / Restaurant

My friends, Dee & Ricky, recently opened up their own restaurant at the ripe age of 24 in the Clinton Hill neighborhood. I stop in here every now and then for the roti. Also, there's a really cool (Nigeria-owned) sandwich & smoothie spot next door that is not pictured.

New York / Gallery

The best underground shows you will find will have free pbr and models as far as the eye can see. They are rarely announced, so keep your eyes out for promising openings, especially with Milk Underground coming up.

New York / Park

These guys play polo on bike. They smash into one another alot, like an outtake from Mad Max in a way. Its in the Lower East Side. These guys are crazy.
