Bare to the walls
![]() |
| Nothing left behind |
With the closure of a store, the interior was gutted to the bare walls, leaving behind an empty storefront.
Most of the items on the outside back wall were also removed.
The red "Video Recording In Progress" sign was left behind, reminding the casual passerby that video recordings are in progress.

Cover relic
This "Time Warner Cable Of New York City" manhole cover was made the East Jordan Iron Works. In 2016, Time Warner Cable was acquired by Charter Communications, which brands itself as "Spectrum". Despite its re-branding, the parent company still has not made a complete logo consolidation of its acquisitions, leaving these relics in the street beneath our feet.

This cast iron 15 x 15 cross diamond pattern utility cover is seen in the street beneath our feet.
This is a Model SCM-5 cover made by Fairfield Industries of Georgetown, South Carolina. It is part of a spill containment manhole that contains any spills that may happen while filling underground storage tanks.
Seen to the left is a 5 x 'lots of holes' cover for a rain drainage system.
