Satan's Laundromat by Josh Rubin
Satan's Laundromat is a Brooklyn based photolog of urban decay, strange signage and other odd city moments. They have also collaborated on Down Below, a photo-documentary of defunct subway paggages. Both projects reveal an aesthetically intense, though emotionally draining part of the city.

This is a wonderful presentation of a man, who...
