shoes off, please!



SoHo - map it here
I posted this picture of a doorstep somewhere in SoHo on my Flickr account and got a comment that amused me and which I thought was the perfect commentary for this picture:
I love this: 'We are edgy but fastidious people - our dream is to live in a hip, up-and-coming neighborhood but with really clean rugs. Shoes off please." - johnsfauxtos

I know EXACTLY where that photo is taken. :-)

But I never see shoes left out on the steps.

Thank you guys!

@ ming: where exactly? SoHo and Greenwich Village are areas where I wander but never remember the street names exactly.

@ bergson: Quelque chose du genre "nous sommes des gens dans le vent - notre rêve est de vivre dans un quartier super branché mais avec des tapis vraiment bien propres. On retire ses chaussures, svp."

Beautiful shot. Lights, graffiti, (or is it art) shoes and all.

It's a regular custom for us to remove our shoes upon entering house.

The comment is indeed funny! Very creative of him!
