Gateway Through the Lens
Too dynamic to be defined by one angle, one shot, and one photographer, Gateway Through the Lens was conceived to highlight the dynamic personality of the Bedford-Stuyvesant Gateway Improvement District as an artistic, multifaceted and multidimensional place.
Our online gallery captures the identity of the district over time from the perspective of photographers near and dear to Bed-Stuy, with many world-renowned for their talent.
