Tribeca Then and Now #5

December 24, 2012 History, Photo Essay

When I posted Yvonne Babineaux’s photos of Tribeca in the 1980s, I promised I’d go out and take “now” shots for comparison’s sake. Here’s the fifth batch.

Previously:
••• Tribeca Then and Now #1: W. Broadway and Duane
••• Tribeca Then and Now #2: Staple, Jay, Harrison, and Hudson
••• Tribeca Then and Now #3: Leonard, Varick, Franklin, N. Moore, and Hudson
••• Tribeca Then and Now #4: Hudson, Holland Tunnel, and Broome

Thanks again to Yvonne for letting me run her photos, and thanks to the readers who helped figure out where the photos were taken.

    Collister and Hubert Streets have only marginally improved. That area includes the Am Ex stables building, which has very pricey condos in it. It’s amazing residents have not tried to eliminate the grafitti on Collister St. Indeed, the artist who owns the storefront in the Am Ex building that is at 157 Hudson Street does nothing to remove grafitti or maintain the exterior of his space whatsoever. What can be done about this?
