This is the old website for Station to Station, a project in which I took a photo within a square block of each of New York City's subway stations. It began when I realized that despite living in the city for seven years, I'd been to barely a quarter of the subway stops. I decided to make a portrait of the city, one station at a time.

Each photo was made within a square block of one of the station's entrances or exits, generally less than two minutes' walk away. No photo could include the subway station itself. (Elevated outdoor tracks were fair game, though.) All photos were made with a medium-format camera on negative film and printed in a color darkroom.

This project was mostly done between 2002 and 2004 and is now finished, though I'm still getting around to scanning the negatives. As of May 2010, I've started a blog that will eventually add photos from the series until it's all up — go visit it for frequent updates!
