Forty years in NYC, in those very neighborhoods, having seen countless NYC pictures and yet here was something remarkably original - all from a simple idea, so smartly executed. Thanks for seeing what many of us didn’t. – Phillip Block, Deputy Director, ICP

"I’ve always said the very best bars are inviting, whether packed or empty. Daniel Root’s amazing set of images takes you to a bar netherworld that few get to see. These photos were taken before dawn, after closing, after the porters have been there to clean up and restock the bar, before the managers come back to check last night’s register ring. It’s a part of every single bar, but one that mostly goes unseen." – Eric “Roscoe” Ambel, guitarist, producer, and former owner of the Lakeside Lounge in NYC
