Photographer and artist Robert A. Ripps has lived and worked on N. Moore Street since 1988, raising his two sons here. In addition to teaching photography, Robert volunteers with a number of schools, not-for-profits and humanitarian organizations, including the GMHC, the Pablove Foundation, Tribeca Trust and Cut Red Tape 4 Heroes.
To commemorate the 20th anniversary of 9/11, I asked several neighbors to recall that day and their experience. This post contains Robert’s photos from the following days taken on the streets of the neighborhood. See the two other posts for his photos from Sept. 11 and those from two months later.
