The Beauty of the New York Farm Colony
Staten Island

This visit to Staten Island’s Farm Colony we were taken aback by the clear walkways to all the structures, tagged trees, caution taped paths and overall feeling that the reliably accessible site might have an expiration date… eventually. Development of the site has been abuzz for several years, however this clearing of debris, is the first care I’ve seen taken in the space since I first visited in 2018. Now almost 5 years later, I am still discovering corners of enticement. To follow, mostly shots of a new-to-me structure within its borrowed time.
