Meadowlands

Gergely Szatmari shows us lesser seen images of that place on the other side of the Hudson River you hear about sometimes. Check out what you can't see from the bus to the Newark airport.

Since I live in Brooklyn and have the entire island of Manhattan between me and New Jersey, what I’ve seen of the Garden State is from bus rides to the airport and episodes of The Sopranos. Seems depressing. These photos by Gergely Szatmari, from his series "Meadowlands," pretty much confirm my suspicions. They remind me of every suburban landscape I've ever seen which feels forgotten, sad, and yet full of its own unique beauty. Also, there are a lot of cool old cars there.
