Seven ways into the city

The archive is organized the way the city is: by what stands, who lives there, what runs, what swims, what grows, what’s on the plate.

No. 04Why we started

Los Angeles had brands that repped the city. New York had a dozen. San Francisco had souvenir shops. So we started writing the city down, one garment at a time: the call boxes, the streetcars, the sea lions, the burrito. Not where. Why.
