Artist: Dasic FernándezNeighborhood: ChinatownAddress: Doyer St. New York, NY 10013

Once notoriously known as the “bloody angle” thanks to relentless gang violence, Doyers Street in Chinatown has become a tranquil neighborhood street that’s also home to one of the best murals in NYC. Rice Terraces, created in 2021 by Chilean artist Dasic Fernández in collaboration with NYC’s Department of Transportation Art, helps draw folks into the historic street (also home to NYC’s oldest dim-sum restaurant, Nom Wah Tea Parlor).

Only if, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
