"*Photographers Karla and James Murray have been documenting New York City's evolution over the years
*The couple have been photographing New York mom and pop storefronts for more than two decades
*They've titled the project Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York City and have published a few books about it
*Now, they have built a wood-frame sculptural installation 'Mom-and-Pops of the L.E.S.' inside Seward Park
*It shows four near life-size photos of businesses to help raise awareness of their importance in the community"
