So, I was able to steal a quick 15 minutes last night to stop by and meet Kevin Cummins at White Columns. He was signing his new collection of iconic photos of Joy Division, taken in the 70’s.

The Brooklyn Bridge fence with Brooklyn brownstones on one side and the Manhattan skyline on the other is just below Cobble Park, in Cobble Hill on Clinton St.
