Photographer Steven Siegel has taken us back through time with his raw portraits of New York in the ‘80s.

From graffiti-lined Brooklyn thoroughfares, to pre-gentrification neighborhoods of Manhattan, Sielgel has managed to give a sense of what the city was like in the ‘80s—gritty, rough and edgy.

If you came of age in what many have termed ‘The Bad Old Days’, then be prepared for a sudden wave of nostalgia to hit you.
