49 Bogart — Swallow Cafe, Brooklyn's Natural — 3/4 complete



One side remains unfinished, I will go out tomorrow and photograph it. The street view of that side is from a few years ago, it's washed out, and also the camera is facing the sun. I have to wait until the evening (or maybe go in the AM ) to get the shot.

I've added the stairs and some other tiny features to the model — I may model the fire escape on the back side. There is also a fire escape on the unfinished side, which ascends in a long diagonal.

According to some maps I found, this building was sometime around the turn of the 1900, a cork factory and also a fur dyeing… place.
