The black and white bathroom at Participant Inc. |
Another storefront reception area, Ave. B. |
And the magazine and candy stand at the Delancey St. Station |
Late night ride home, Fourth Ave., Brooklyn |
In front of the house there's a fire engine, and the whole street turns red. |

The check-out line at Ikea, above, and bins of impulse items, below. |
Returning from Ikea, the bus takes us through Gowanus, and I catch a glimpse of the train that I want to get back to Bed-Stuy, high on the horizon. |
From the G-train, on a beautiful day, an elevated view over Gowanus. |
