New York City in the 70s and 80s, It used to be Crazy!

New York City is still Crazy – and that’s why we love it! But back in the 70s and 80s things were out of control, Warriors style – a couple photographers I recently learned about did some good photo journalism work. Bruce Davidson is an amazing photographer who produced many of these photos, you can check out photos from his book “Subway” here, and learn more about him on the Magnum website here. The other photographer who some of the below photos are attributed to is John Conn who was featured last year in the New York Times’ Lens blog in an article entitled “When the City Was a House of Horrors,” you can learn more about him on his website as here.
