Bowery Be Bop

The Bowery, which is actually a street and the name of an area, used to be the dregs of New York.  Seedy, unsafe, you know.  All that kind of stuff that gentrified people don't like.  Murders, dives, etc.  Now, it's nice.  There are classy clubs.  Theatres.  Things like that.

Oh, and there are flowers.  Lots, and lots of flowers.  I mean, it's spring- everything is in bloom.

And, it's beautiful.

By the way... I know I've been doing a lot of neighborhood specific posts lately.  How are you enjoying it?  To me, it's an easy way to chronicle the photographs and keep a post focused on one topic.  But, I also know it's a bit different from what I was doing before.  I am happy with it, but I would love your feedback.  As always, feel free to leave me comments here or on Facebook, or send me an email.  

Thank you so much!

On Broadway

My biggest dream in life is to be on Broadway.  Though I have this photography blog, this a hobby.  My profession is actually acting.  I have wanted to be an actress since I was a little girl- my family would always have to stop me from singing Disney Princess songs in the middle of the night, or watch my five hour long sagas performed with my Barbies or dinosaurs.  So, I was incredibly joyous three years ago, when I moved to New York for school, to learn that I would be living on Broadway!  Of course, Broadway is a massive street that runs the entire length of Manhattan..... this sign, with the lovely flower basket, is on the intersection of 23rd St and Broadway.
