We named our restaurant after the legendary Harlem speakeasy that was located at 138th Street and 7th Avenue, where neighborhood folk, jazz greats, authors, politicians and some of the most noteworthy figures of the 20th Century – such as Adam Clayton Powell Jr., Nat King Cole and James Baldwin – would converge . . .
After lunch we walked down Lenox Avenue to Central Park, me carrying my Alpa TC, Phase One IQ 180 back and a 47mm Schneider XL lens.
This is not 1975:
The self-same Lenox Lounge referred to on the Red Rooster’s site. Note the patched bullet holes in the facade.
And finally, a Mostly Mozart concert in Avery Fisher Hall. Take with my Blackberry.
On this day one year ago: A boring out my window. The photo-a-day guy was under real pressure here.
On this day one year ago: Old town hall, Morris Connecticut. Another favorite of mine from last year.
