Victory Boulevard, North Shore, Staten Island

For the first few months photographing here, I’ve focused on the streets of the North Shore.

I’ve asked myself questions like: Where are the crossroads? What does it feel like to be here? Where is it loud? Where is it quiet?

I’ve used Victory Boulevard as the spine to my wanderings. I’ve talked to Staten Islanders and met many who have shared their stories about this place, inspiring me to capture a sense of an urban landscape in transition.

Afternoon commutes, barber shop visits, walking to the car and running to catch a bus. These are the sidewalks, these are the roads, these are the places between coming and going.
