International Hostel: Lobby

On 103 and Amsterdam is an historic building that once held the widows of Civil War soldiers until thier final days. Now it bustles with the young adventurous travelers from around the world as New York City's largest hostel. Not everyone there is on vacation. Some guests bare the mark of old fashioned New York crazy, and rumors of the undead widows unwilling to move on to the next realm. The lobby holds a mural I recently created. The idea behind its subject matter was "New York City welcomes the world".
