That was then

[East 6th Street]

Though the years, Gregoire Alessandrini has shared some early 1990s photos of the city with us... (like here ... and here).

He recently added another set to his blog — New York in the 1990's Photo Archives.

Here are a few of the East Village-related shots...

[10th Street and Avenue A]

Check out the rest of the set here.

The usual background: As a student here in the early-to-mid 1990s, Alessandrini always carried a camera around with him ... and he has been uploading the photos from that time to his blog. He lives in Paris these days.
