The Belnord
One Building - 213 homes
The opportunity to produce a cohesive body of work as a book is always a fantastic challenge. I was commissioned by the owner of the the Belnord - an iconic apartment block in New York - to photograph the building and its residents to celebrate the building’s centenary It’s wonderful building- a village within a city full of the most interesting, kind, engaging and diverse people. I went there for a week at a time over the course of a year.
