My Saturday circuit when I've got clay under my nails and need an excuse to wash it off with a glass of something cheap. These are the spaces I actually walk to, not the Chelsea mega-booths with the climate-controlled egos. Expect industrial stairwells, a whiff of the canal, and art that's usually better than the elevator ride up.
