LOFT PEEPING: 2011 LOFT TOUR PREVIEW
At the press preview for the 12th-annual Inside Tribeca Loft Tour—a benefit for Friends of Duane Park, and the premiere event for local lookyloos—I got to check out three apartments. The one pictured at right is a rental on Warren that has (at least!) five levels. And the second one is on Desbrosses; check it out here. The third is coming soon….

REFLECTIONS ON THE CITY (PART 3)
I have a thing for reflected light, the way it forms patterns and shapes on city surfaces. The third (and last) photo essay in a series.
