MoMA PS1

MOMA Queens shots were taking during the time period when MOMA opened that spot to the public, which is in Queens near the 33rd Street Train Station. The other shot is from the Concierge desk at the Westin at Times Square which is located at 8th Ave and 42nd Street.

All of these are from my early digital work on my Olympus 450z, when I first moved to New York City. The MOMA shots I believe were taken in 2002, which when MOMA Queens were open. I didn't include any pictures without people, which is a requirement of the project. These were from my one and only trip to the Queens version of the museum, which I did with a friend. There wasn't as many people as I thought was there, and they were actually too open to people taking photos in there. I didn't manage to sneak a few out, mostly of the lobby and I have a few more from the outside. The 4th picture is of the Westin at Time Square when it first opened, with a concierge and one of the signs I worked on designing while I was at RHD Design. I have a other shots without people of the signs that were first there and some pictures after its construction and a few during. The way I found it was cause I took it and it was still on my backup drive. The Westin shot was taken as a portfolio shot for my bosses and my design work.
