Untitled at 3 Freeman Alley

Disclaimer: Our stay at Untitled at 3 Freeman Alley was discounted in exchange for this post. All photos and views are my own.

Calling all street art lovers! 

I've found THE perfect hotel for you in New York!

During our visit to New York earlier this Summer, we stayed at Untitled at 3 Freeman Alley, and it was one of my favorite hotels we've ever stayed at. A handy location in the Lower East Side neighborhood, well-thought-out guest rooms, an onsite cafe and bar, stunning views over the city, fun and well designed communal facilities, friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfast included, an onsite tattoo studio... oh, and did I mention street art?

Untitled is located in New York's iconic Freeman Alley. This short alleyway is home to an ever changing array of street art. And when I say ever changing, I mean it. Each day when we walked out of the hotel in the morning we were met with new art. When we returned each evening, there was yet more new art. If we saw a mural we wanted a picture with, we quickly learned to snap a shot right away, because we never knew what we'd find the next time we walked past!

The street art aesthetic continues through Freeman Alley and into Untitled itself, where murals and local art meet modern design. Colorful artworks decorate the walls, while the plush fabrics and warm natural woods and stone of the furniture create a balanced and comfortable environment. Everywhere you look there's something to see, but it doesn't overwhelm. It's the perfect mix of street art and Scandinavian inspired design. A little edgy, but also cozy. Just like the city itself.

Denver Chalk Art Festival 2026

This past weekend, Denver's streets were awash with color thanks to the annual Denver Chalk Art Festival.

On Saturday and Sunday, more than 200 artists decorated the streets in Denver's Golden Triangle Creative District with the most amazing chalk art creations. Yes, right on the streets.

This year I attended the festival on the Saturday evening. This means that most of the chalk art works were not finished, but as you can see, they were still pretty spectacular to see. It also meant that, unlike last year when I went late on the Sunday, I actually got to see a lot more of the artists working. While it's nice to see the finished product, seeing the artists bringing their creations to life is pretty amazing. 

Let's take a look at some of this year's art works...

Longmont Street Art

Recently I've been spending a bit of time in Longmont, and one of the things I love about this northern Colorado city is the abundance of street art.

You guys know I'm a sucker for a good mural, and Longmont has a lot of them, so today I'm sharing my favorites with you. I've also put together a handy map to help you find all of these murals, so make sure to read to the end for the link.
