New York’s Streets Are Full of Curbside Treasures

If you're not from New York City, you may not be familiar with the term 'stooping' - it's a longstanding tradition where people leave their unwanted furniture on the sidewalk for other people to take free of charge. Since New York is such a big city, with every type of person you can imagine, you could come by some pretty impressive finds. The old fashioned way to do it is, of course, just cruising around hoping to see something that catches your eye but to make things easier, these days, there are social media pages which share curbside treasures waiting for new owners. Check out some of the coolest stooping jackpots in the gallery below. To see more, you can visit the Instagram page StoopingNYC.
