StoreFrontII_cover_XSJoin authors and photographers James and Karla Murray in their own neighborhood on November 16 to celebrate the release of their new book, Store Front IIA History Preserved: The Disappearing Face of New York, in the Strand Bookstore’s Rare Book Room. The Murrays, who live nearby, will present a slideshow of photos of their favorite local spots hand-picked from their collection, followed by an open Q & A session.
