View as Map

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Want to go beyond point, shoot, and filter — and filter, and filter — for your next Instagram photo? Before you upload your next picture, check out New York City's best Instagrammable walls and street art, mapped out below from north to south.

Keep in mind that some of these are updated on both a planned (like Rag + Bone's constantly-changing display off of Houston Street) and unplanned basis (scaffolding, graffiti, etc.) — what we've got here is how these places look as of this publication.
