THE BEAUTIFUL STREETS

In 2000, the NYC Transit authority joined forces with an artificial reef building program, dropping stripped and decontaminated subway cars off barges into the Atlantic Ocean.  Photographer Stephen Mallon chronicled the grand endeavor with a series of beautiful and haunting photographs as these iconic New York City symbols made their way to their last stop: the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.

SOOOO MUCH FUN!!! Think classic disco tunes and costume party while spinning around on wheels. I think these roller parties are only on in NYC about twice a year so get there early to pick up your skates. Check out dates and venues here: www.downandderby.org
