Liberty Village Studio


Liberty Village was a major centre for funky artist studios in old factories but as always seems to happen, gentrification has taken place and now it is filled with trendy stores and loft conversions and even new condo buildings. A totally different place has developed. But I was down there wandering about my old stomping grounds and found what may be the only true studio left in the area. There was a nice woman and her dog sitting amongst these plants outside the door to the studio and a motorcycle was parked inside the space. I hope they hang in there for a long time!

  2. Gentrification can be a plague sometimes, can't it?

  3. I would LOVE to have that as my studio. It's nice to see a corner that's not completely gentrified.
