NEW YORK - MAY 02: People walk by a re-creation of an untitled mural painted by artist Keith Haring on the corner of Houston Street and Bowery in Manhattan May 2, 2008 in New York City. Marking the 50th anniversary of Haring's birth on May 4, a team of artists recreated the mural which was originally done in 1982 as Haring's first major outdoor project. The original mural only existed for a few months before the Day-Glo colors began to decompose in the sun and Haring painted over the piece.

Flat 128, part Notting Hill home, part high end boutique and part well-curated gallery, is the impressive result of Elizabeth DuBois’ tireless desire for a fusion of the two cities she loves best, and it is certainly worthy of note.
