Swing Street ain't the Jazzy place it used to be
Thoughts of sadness and smothered genius struck me as I walked down 52nd street between 5th and 6th avenue. Once known as "Swing Street" and home of many jazz clubs, it's now a lifeless, urban dessert. It's hard to believe that Jazz greats like Thelonious Monk and Charlie Parker once played there.
I took the photos below during my walk.
