We learn today from Andrea at hula seventy, home of “Photobooth Friday,” that the beloved photobooth at Niagara in New York City has been replaced with a digital booth, and one that at least temporarily wouldn’t take their dollars, to boot.
We’d had problems with the booth before, but it was also the center of a few photobooth projects, including a Photobooth art show earlier this year. It’s too bad this booth didn’t survive, and we mourn its removal.
apparently, it had just been replaced one week earlier. when we pressed the bartender for details, he told us they couldn’t keep up with all the break downs, the maintenance.
I was really hoping for some authentic photobooth strips. though what’s most troubling to me is the rate at which the old booths are disappearing…
OH NO! Niagara’s photobooth was amazing!
