​As Monday marked the 50th anniversary of Bob Dylan's arrival in New York City, we move now to the second Jeremy Krinsley-helmed video in our week-long celebration. Today's tour stop features 161 West Fourth Street, the site of Dylan's first New York apartment (rent: $60 a month), and the just-around-the-corner Jones Street, the snowy, slushy (just like today!) setting of one of the most famous album covers in music history.
