Signs

I've been collecting some photos of building signs in Manhattan - leading off with the year 2002 shows on Broadway in the Times Square area. The other significant group of photos have been taken mostly around Houston and Lafayette streets in the SOHO/NOHO area.

I find the messages and graphics of building signs fascinating and fun to photograph. I hope you do too.

After you scan the gallery, I highly recommend that you use the "Original" viewing format to see details in each photo. The smaller viewing formats really do not show the images in their most interesting light.
