via Sound Portraits - The Sunshine Hotel

~~ CLICK FOR LINK TO AUDIO PORTRAIT ~~

This is an audio portrait of one of the final vestiges of the Bowery, New York’s notorious skid row. In the first half of the century, the mile-long Bowery’s bars, missions and cheap hotels (or flophouses) were home to an estimated 35,000 down-and-out men each night. Today, only a handful of flophouses, virtually unchanged for half a century, are all that remain of this once teeming world.
For several months in 1998, David Isay and Stacy Abramson had unprecedented 24-hour access to the Sunshine Hotel, one of the last of the no-frills establishments. “It was like stepping into King Tut’s Tomb,” Isay says. “The Sunshine is this fascinating, self-contained society full of unbelievable characters. While it’s a profoundly sad place, it is, at the same time, home to men with powerful and poetic stories.

The Weight of Objects

“For years, this necklace sat in a little elephant-patterned satin box, a treasure passed down from my great aunt when I was 9, that I would wear when I was a “grown up.”  In my mid- 20s I moved into my first apartment alone and soon after was robbed, wiping clean my mementos marking milestones and people. Eight years later, browsing in a nearby vintage shop, I found the necklace.”

“‘DV’ is the hilarious and wonderfully direct autobiography by the famed fashion editor and supreme original Diana Vreeland. For the past 12 years, it has served as a road map, helping me to understand and appreciate the way in which fashion reflects the greater world. Beyond superficiality, it is a political thermometer, a cultural piñata and daily influencer.”
