Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York

Store Front, The Disappearing Face of New York is a visual guide to New York City’s timeworn storefronts from Gingko Press. It’s a collection of powerful images that capture the neighbourhood spirit and familiarity that these shops once embodied. Almost all of these businesses are a reflection of New York’s early immigrant population, a wild mix of varying ethnic backgrounds. This is book is an exceptional visual history of New York and its ever changing face and a one of Made from Plastic’s favourite new books.
