Orestes' LIC BY ORESTES GONZALEZ Editor’s note: Orestes Gonzalez is an architect, photographer, writer and resident of LIC since 1989. He has been taking photographs for over 25 years, traveling to over 40 countries and documenting what has become the overriding theme in his photography – man’s intrinsic need for leaving a mark and the different paths to achieving it. His column, “Orestes’ LIC”, will concentrate on showing snippets of life around the areas we live in. A local record keeper, if you will. Take a look at Orestes’ Haunting video of Black & White photographs taken the night after hurricane Sandy ripped through Manhattan Vimeo. com/78436106 12 OCTOBER 2016 i LIC COURIER i www.qns.com water buffalo This polyresin sculpture of a Buffalo is currently in front of our firehouse in LIC. I found the scene whimsical, yet very realistic. LIC is full of artistic creations in the mix of our working class and luxury residential fabric. It’s kind of like a microcosm of what New York is all about.
