Nos 96 and 98 Saint Marks Place, New York City, the two tenement buildings photographed for the famous album cover of supergroup Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti album. On the album cover, the top fifth floor was removed to allow it to fit into the square format and the windows die-cut out to show the title printed on the record sleeve inserted inside.

It almost has an illustrative feel... Wonderful tones and contrasts and architecture and very cool history. Gorgeous work Chris! l/f!
Chris Lord replied:
I wanted to approximate the feel of the picture on the album cover which was kinda like that too. Pleased that you enjoyed it, Meg, thank you very much
