Benjamin Alford, Neighbor

Raised in the high deserts of northwestern New Mexico, college educated in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I now make my home in a very different environment: Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.  Interests include exploring the city on foot, Sacred Harp singing, interacting with strange new ideas and listening to the crazy music my roommates dredge up from the sloughs of obscurity.  If you think you've seen me around, it's probably because I've been wandering the streets doing research and taking pictures for Patch's directories in Carroll Gardens, Fort Greene, Park Slope and Bed-Stuy.
