I used to live at this old Art Deco apartment building at 200 Clinton Street. Specifically, 5L. Great memories there, and good vibes with all the neighbors.
According to the Brownstoner: The Art Deco apartment building was built in 1936 and designed by architect Leo V. Berger. But it wasn’t the first apartment building to occupy the corner of Clinton Street and Atlantic Avenue. From 1881 until 1934, the corner was dominated by The Fougera, a massive brick and brownstone pile that was demolished in 1934.
It was my intention to capture and preserve the essence and unique qualities of a city that is quickly disappearing by the forces of progress. Old architecture often coupled with graffiti, grime, and a specific European sensibility has set the stage for many movies and romantic dreams in the best city in the world.
In some cases, I’ve indicated the date the image was created (on-site), the location, and often the outdoor temperature or weather of the session in an effort to remember and recall the feeling of the experience of being there. Some places still exist, while others are on the verge of disappearing, and many others are just memories now.
