Sticking with last months theme of Extreme Makeovers, Elspeth’s post and inspired by some of the most fantastic street art on display throughout Tribeca, we decided to finally — do something — with our fabulous little 2 story building (might we add that it’s one of the only ones left in Tribeca). With the permission of our very cool neighbors downstairs at Province Chinese Canteen, we set to work on the windows and already tagged door of 305 Church Street.

“What’s with the birds and the tree?” we hear you ask…Our birds are visiting relatives of Huginn and Muninn (Thought and Memory) — the ravens from our crest, and the tree is an abstraction of the World Tree - of which you can read more about here.

It took hours of preparation, one wrong doing and the braving of the winter weather...before we got it absolutely right!  You can see more photos and the entire well documented process here.
We’d also love to hear your feedback and thoughts…don’t be shy!
