Joy's...for the Moment
In the city's redeveloping and regentrifying North Kenwood/Oakland community, a bit of the neighborhood's former self exists on east 43rd Street in the guise of the former Joy's Liquor Store. Its bars are drawn and rusted; its stock of cold beer and other provisions are long depleted. The store's only duty is to sit there, silent and blue, and await the change that will ultimately claim it. (photo by Lee Bey)
