Street cobbler

This shoe maker set up shop on a sidewalk in Chinatown in NYC where he repairs shoes for his customers. He provides a less expensive alternative to the working class community of Chinatown. His business is born out of necessity and with his extremly low overhead, he is able to pass the savings on to the people. Needless to say, he isn't able to work when it's raining.
