Paul's Boutique v.2013

As a massive fan of the Beastie Boys and particularly ‘Paul’s Boutique’ I (naturally) headed straight to the corner of Ludlow Street & Rivington Street to ‘re-create’ the wonderful album cover (check out this awesome panoramic that was used on the gatefold LP version - upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/30/Paul%27s_Boutique_...) and sadly came up very short.

 

As one would expect, the area has changed dramatically in the 23 years since the album was released; however, round the corner I took this photo, which to me embodies the spirit of NY, the Beastie Boys and ‘Paul’s Boutique’.
