A year ago, just before the pandemic arrived, I finished this project for Crowhill Development, a real estate development company that converted what was once the Nassau Brewing Company in Brooklyn, New York, into residential apartments. The company's VP and project lead, Patrick Ciccone, is a passionate architectural preservationist, and wanted to recreate the old signage. I couldn't have been happier when they invited me on board. 

As a signpainter with almost a decade under my belt, I've long been admiring the old faded signage on New York's buildings, painted by "wall dogs" a century or more ago.  It's been on my wish list to do just that, and contribute to the cityscape.

Those were cold days, made warmer by some good thermals and the good company of Patrick, who rolled up his sleeves and painted in the outlines, and Caleb, who came in for the second part of the project.
