James Van Der Zee's photography studio building still stands today at Lenox Avenue and 124th Street. The top photo was taken this afternoon and shows only two G's remain of the original G.G.G. Studio signage painted on the exterior wall. Instead of Van Der Zee photos plastered on the windows, today, a rental agency has the latest apartments "to let" on display. Take the 2,3 train to 125th Street and walk one block south on Lenox/Malcolm X.

Thank you for taking the time to show this. It is great information for those of use who love photography and the work of Van Der Zee. Few people know this is still there, just as I have discovered it from your site for the first time today. I live in Los Angeles, so this is excellent to be able to see it. Thank you.
