City Window With Curly Fire Escapes - Vintage Architect



They don't make windows like they used to, anymore - these picturesque old New York City brownstone windows each seem to have a different decoration on top, making the view just as interesting from the outside as it is from the inside, looking out onto the street. A lone tree just beginning to show its leaves after a cold spring heartens me after a long, cold winter. It is almost a stained glass or a Tiffany lamp look.

Colorful Old Buildings Of New York City - Pop-art Style


I love experimenting with light, pattern, and color, and this scene of old New York City buildings lends itself well to a stylized pop-art style view of Manhattan.

Elemental City - Fire Escape, Graffiti & Old Brownstone Buildings Of New York City































How many cities share these elements?

Fire escape, graffiti, and weathered old bricks ... not to mention a little hint of a restaurant down there along the lower left. It doesn't take much to speak "City."


Vintage New York Nostalgia - Gallery
by
Miriam Danar

This gallery is dedicated to bits and pieces of old-time New York, gathered from the streets, alleyways, storefronts, and memories of my childhood and that of my parents and grandparents. Enjoy this glimpse into the daily life of the past, that still may be found today. Some of these images are of modern times and places, but evoke a wistful kind of emotion. I will be adding images in the coming days, so please keep checking this gallery.
