New York/No Photos Allowed

Crosby Street -- © Brian Rose

I was drawn into Crosby Street just off Houston by the ASPCA truck with a large cat face gazing slightly upward. It was parked in front of Happy Paws Daycare with a lot of happy dogs cavorting in the windows along the street.



Unhappily there were signs on each plate glass window stating "No Photos Allowed." Never mind the fact that a private business can not legally prevent one from taking pictures on a public street in this city or any other in the United States. See first amendment for reference.

A few blocks away I found this storefront.
