4 Stop 4 of 12 on The Bloody Angle and the Golden Buddha

Mott Street

Chinatown, New York City

A Preview

"This is Mott Street, the oldest spine of the oldest Chinatown in the country. If the neighborhood has a Main Street, you're on it. Look up at the rooflines — the little upturned corners, the painted balconies, the pagoda flourishes. They look ancient and imported. They're mostly not. That whole distinctly-Chinese look was, in large part, invented right here as a style."
