After the Storm

#Sandy, blackout, Chinatown, Hurricane Sandy, LES

The pieces Hurricane Sandy left behind—through the eyes of citizen journalists, tumblrs, and photographers. Hang in there, New York.

Plenty of water in my hood. #les #hurricane #sandy #lady_birdseyeview

No power in the Lower East Side isn’t going to stop the Hare Krishna’s from having a good time.

The LES feels deserted.

Blacked out LES with the lights of Brooklyn taunting us.
