The image above is the cover of the very first book of Soho street photography ever published. It is also the very first book that our company published.
It depicts the streets, architecture, and storefronts of Soho, NYC, most in full color, as they looked during the district's
transition from funky to chic, the 1970's through the 1980's. All of the pictures were taken by the internationally renowned photo artist Bob Edelson.

A best seller in New York City for a year after its publication,
1993 - 1994, the entire edition of 3,000 copies was sold out by the end of 1994. It was never reprinted because the district changed,
and many of the streets and storefronts were no longer as they were depicted, e.g.
"Manhattan Bistro" on Spring Street changed its store front, and the long established Soho neighborhood bookstore "Spring Street Books" went out of business.

God, looking at the Towers from street level might be one of, if not the best views to see them IMO, these pictures reaffirm this.

I believe that is the Haughwout (sp?) building, at the corner of Broome & Broadway. It's considered one of the flagship cast-iron buildings of the neighborhood.

Good deal. Thanx for the info...with a name it'll be easier to research the building. I really need an address....are you ever in that part of town? I had another forumer tell me it was on the south side of Broome Street between Mercer and Greene....Does that ring any bells?
Either way thanx for posting! :okay:
