	Tent of Tomorrow and Meadow Lake 2006 Sizes Available: 20"x30" 16"x24" 12"x18" This picture was taken from the top of the 1964 World’s Fair observation towers in Flushing Meadows, Queens. At the foot of the towers one sees the remains of the "Tent of Tomorrow,” an open structure designed by Philip Johnson that featured the world’s largest suspended-roof, which was supported on 16 concrete columns, each 98 feet high. The structures have been unused since the fair and decades of rain, wind and snow have taken their toll, almost completely destroying the metalwork inside the observation towers – including the stairs used to access this vantage point. The view stretches towards Meadow Lake, a man-made body of water also created for the Fair.

	Smallpox Hospital, Roosevelt Island, NYC 2005 Sizes Available: 20"x30" 16"x24" 12"x18" Opened in 1856, the Smallpox Hospital was designed by James Renwick, the architect best known for creating St. Patrick's Cathedral on Fifth Avenue. The hospital represents one of the first serious attempts in the United States to quarantine sick citizens. Blackwell Island, later known as Welfare Island, and today as Roosevelt Island, was for 113 years the "heartbreak house ... the miserable sewer into which New York dumped its pitiful sweepings." The building was abandoned in the 1950s and the magnificent gothic ruin sits at the south end of the Island. The Citicorp Building is seen through the windows.
	Paris Catacombs "Le Chambre Egyptienne," Paris, France 2006 Sizes Available: 20"x30" 16"x24" 12"x18" The Paris Catacombs are a network of over 200 miles of ancient limestone quarry tunnels, dating as far back as the twelfth century. The paintings in this room, which was popular for parties in the 1970s and 1980s represents a 200 year old tradition of cataphiles decorating the underground environment. This chamber was discovered by Steve and his colleague Moses during a thirty-six hour trek beneath the city.
	Petit Ceinture & Catacomb Entrance, Paris, France 2006 Sizes Available: 12"x18" The extensive network of catacombs (mostly old quarry tunnels) in Paris has entrances throughout the city, though most have been closed as the city has grown over time. The Petite Ceinture, an abandoned railroad line around the outskirts of Paris, travels through a series of tunnels and open cut sections, and provides access to some of the tunnels in the catacomb network.
	Three Layers of Paris Triptych, Paris, France 2006 Sizes Available: 20"x30" 16"x24" 12"x18" This image shows three levels of the same spot in Paris: underground, at street level, and at the level of the rooftops along the Rue Saint-Jacques in the 5ème arrondissement. All major cities are multi-layered, but few show this as clearly as Paris, where centuries-old “catacomb” tunnels (many of which are the remnants of old limestone quarries) form a network under the southern half of the city. Above this, the street level is the view of Paris seen by most residents and visitors, while above the rooftop, the cityscape shows the 19th-century limestone architecture of the city interrupted by churches and the Eiffel tower.
	Angel on the Tour St. Jacques, Paris, France 2006 Sizes Available: 16"x20" The free-standing Saint-Jacques Tower in Paris’ 4th Arrondissement is all that remains from the old church of Saint-Jacques-la-Boucherie, which was built between 1509 and 1523. (The name of the church reflected the profession of its patrons, butchers at the nearby Les Halles market.) The church itself, except for this tower, was destroyed in 1797 during the French Revolution. The top of the tower, about 170 feet high, is higher than any other structure in the area and the statuary angels have looked out over the cityscape through centuries of change. The top of the tower was accessible only briefly while surrounded by scaffolding for a survey of the stonework, but a group of Parisian urban explorers obtained keys to the site in order see the city from this unique perspective.
	18th Street Subway Station (abandoned), Manhattan, NY 2008 Sizes Available: 20"x30" 16"x24" 12"x18" (to be added)
	Bergen Street Lower Level, Brooklyn, NY 2005 Sizes Available: 16"x24" 12"x18" This part of a dual-level tunnel was built in 1933 as part of the Independent Subway line, which added to New York’s original 1906 subway system. The lower level was never used for passenger service except briefly in the 1970s and has been essentially abandoned ever since. Running directly underneath an active subway station, this track still occasionally carries maintenance trains and therefore the third rail, straddled by Steve to achieve this shot, has remained live.

	St. Paul Utility Tunnels Diptych, St. Paul, MN 2006 The sandstone and limestone layers under the twin cities of Minneapolis & St. Paul are easy to dig through, and consequently there are miles of honeycombed space beneath the twin cities holding city utilities, old industrial remnants, storage spaces, and natural caves. These photos show tunnels from two different systems: on the left, a long-abandoned underground network of power cables for streetcars in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and on the right a water pipe and electric cables. Both are underneath St. Paul, where at least seven separate utility networks interconnect in a complex underground labyrinth.
