True New Yorkers know that certain spots in the outer boroughs are more quintessentially New York than many places in Manhattan. For the cover of the October 14, 2024 issue, the artist and architect Victoria Tentler-Krylov set out to sketch a vibrant scene in Jackson Heights, in northwest Queens. If you walk along Roosevelt Avenue on a busy day, “you’re bound to be overwhelmed or absorbed (or both) by the visual frenzy that’s happening all around you,“ Tentler-Krylov said. “But make sure to look up—the sunlight filters through the elevated subway tracks, overlaying complicated patterns onto everything below.”
