☞ SEE: Stoops of Manhattan

The recent works of Andrew Berrien Jones, now on display at East Harlem's Museum of the City of New York, focus on the quintessential icon of New York City: the stoop. The show, "Stoop and Shadows," not only shows Mr. Jones' deft hands, but it also illustrates the history of 19th century cast-iron works. Shown in the galleries on the second floor of the museum dedicated to New York's history, the show is a must for city and art lovers alike. 1220 5th Avenue between 103rd and 104th Street.
