10. 57 Great Jones Street
In August 1983, Basquiat moved to 57 Great Jones Street in NoHo, which also served as his studio. Basquiat lived and worked at the home until his death in 1988. The home was a former stable owned by Warhol, and it was here that Basquiat created some of his most influential works that challenged established notions of race, class, and high art.
In 2016, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation unveiled a plaque near the front door of the loft building not only with Basquiat’s name but with a few words describing the late artist. At the unveiling ceremony, speakers included Phil Hartman, owner of Two Boots Pizza and the Great Jones Cafe, where Basquiat tried to pay for a one-dollar Rolling Rock with a $100 dollar bill.
