I took this photo...btwn '77 And '82...Gansevoort Market
Location is the northwest corner of 9th Ave and 14th street...looking NORTH Don't remember the building name...but it is now the location for the Apple store.

In the photo is a co-worker. It is from a series of photos I took...between 1977 and 1982, while I was a worker in the market. I had just moved BACK to NYC in late '77...and getting the job here was just supposed to be a "pit- stop"... until I figured out what I wanted to do. I wound up staying 8 years.
I have a more detailed story...if you want it...
