Harlem 1985
Taken a few years before the “Gold Rush” on Harlem real estate. These shells were there for pennies and I wish I had seen the potential, but my crystal ball was a bit blurry at the time! ©Matt Weber
East 9th Street 1986
This man was often seen panhandling on 9th St. just east of 3d Ave. He never said a word…©Matt Weber

Hello Spring!
This past winter was the coldest one in a long time. I stayed in my room scanning old negatives and considered myself very lucky for the distraction! This picture and the expression on these fellow New Yorkers, sums up the way I feel about winter. Not ready for Florida yet, but I’m getting long in the tooth and my bones don’t deal with 10º weather the way the once did…Good riddance! ©MATT WEBER

“Leaking Stubby” 1985
I really like this old “Stubby” and its crumbling surroundings which I assume were somewhere in lower Manhattan…

Upper West Side 1988
A small but “important” detail of this picture is the old 1960’s Pepsi-Cola Sign in the background which had been hanging in front of “La Caridad” for a long time when I snapped these workers riding in the truck. If I wasn’t a sign collector and a fan of their Spanish-American cuisine then I’m sure the demo guys would be the only part of this picture which mattered…

Woman Fishing 1985
What I want to know is how old is the mooring post? Was it there in the 19th century? Is it still there? There is another one a few paces down the street.
