Ron Giacone has been taking photos off and on since the 1970s. In the early 1980s while spending time at his then girlfriend (future wife) Joanne’s apartment on Barrow Street he documented many of the storefronts and street scenes. Ron says, ”… on Sunday mornings, she’d put a pot of coffee on while I went to buy, the ‘Times’, at ‘Sheridan Square News Stand’ and pastry at ‘Lafayette’.”
