Archival NYC

Armando Negron, owner, Upland Trading Co (199x?)

I'm heading to New York for a quick visit with friends. In addition, I'll be scouting a few favorite shops and taking in archival entertainments at Film Forum, at The Oak Room and on Broadway.

Alas, not on my agenda will be a visit to the Upland Trading Co, the best outdoor clothing store no longer in business.

Archival field report to follow. Flashback to last year's AC in NYC posts here and here.

Hope you packed a sweater and a scarf. Gloves too. We are finally getting colder, windier weather. Enjoy!

I purchased my first Barbour coat there when I was in college. He was a very nice and spiffy gentleman!
