I moved to NYC the same year Humans of New York started, and Dear New York was a full-circle moment in my own journey as a New Yorker, reflecting how the city and its people shape each other.

“You’ve got me as your human!” was what this lovely man said when I asked if they would be projecting Dear New York photos on the walls. “For the first time in history, all of Grand Central is completely cleared of advertising, as 150 digital screens traditionally devoted to a mix of commercial advertising and public service announcements become part of an immersive experience showcasing the diversity and humanity of New York.” “New York is humanity itself. Every type of person is here: every culture, every religion, every viewpoint. And all of us crowded onto the same narrow sidewalks, the same one-way streets, the same subway cars. With all of these differences packed into so small a place, it's a miracle that this city works. Yet somehow, despite the honking, the screaming, the shoving, the cursing; we make it work. Sometimes we annoy the hell out of each other. But we also show up for each other. We take care of each other. In these troubled times, when the world seems to be teetering on edge, New York is still something to celebrate. Humanity is still something to celebrate. Dear New York is my attempt to showcase this city the only way I know how-through its people. And what better canvas than the place where all of New York comes together, Grand Central. It was a job too large for one person. At many points it did not seem possible. But every time I reached a dead end, people showed up to help. People who wanted to create something beautiful. People who believed. People who were skeptical, but came along for the ride anyway. In the end more than one thousand people contributed to this work. All of them helped to create Dear New York. All of them are part of Dear New York. And now, by being here, so are you.” WITH GRATITUDE, BRANDON STANTON CREATOR OF HUMANS OF NEW YORK https://www.dearnewyork.com/ “You’ve got me as your human!” was what this lovely man said when I asked if they would be projecting Dear New York photos on the walls. “For the first time in history, all of Grand Central is completely cleared of advertising, as 150 digital screens traditionally devoted to a mix of commercial advertising and public service announcements become part of an immersive experience showcasing the diversity and humanity of New York.” “New York is humanity itself.

Honored to share a publisher with this amazing author and artist. I've been seeing the wonderful work of Brandon Stanton all over NYC, and saw his new book, #DearNewYork, at the publishing house today. Congratulations @humansofny.bsky.social on a great October release!

Love it. That section of brick wall is always such an eyesore also, I feel like it would be great for a public art installation. Maybe one similar to the #DearNewYork exhibit at GCT right now.

#DearNewYork is amazing! Every single area of grand central has street photography and quotes from New Yorkers. You must see it ❤️
The sign says dear New York A photo of a woman with head in her hands, and the quote says “maybe my journey wasn’t to make money, or be some huge success. Maybe my journey was to recover” A photo of a cute toddler in a Batman costume next to his dog in a superhero outfit A photo of an elderly New Yorker with a pet bird the quote says “he doesn’t love me. That’s for sure. You can project human qualities onto these things until they bite your butt cheek“
