“There is something unique about photographing a hospitality space at 3 AM. Dragging yourself out of bed isn’t fun, but it feels special to be up exploring when the world is asleep (well, it’s Broadway, so there were some people out). It’s common for when photographing hospitality projects, because they frequently photograph well at night, and we need to pick a time that doesn’t inconvenience patrons.”

After photographing the majority of the interior, the team had to make a mad dash to get about 30 trashcans inside in order to get the building documented at twilight.
