The Allegro alleyway is a significant space for me (and for so many others too).  With this short comic I explore how the crowded alleyway on 42nd, between the Ave and 15th, is conceived, perceived, and lived.  It draws from personal and eavesdropped experience, historical conceptions, and insights from urban planners and theorists.

This is my love letter to healthy, well-used urban spaces.
