Williamspoint Photos Du Jour: Street Seating Selections

Man oh man is it hot out! For this reason I have decided to beat the heat by sidling up to the a/c and rolling out some of my favorite Williamspoint street seating. Enjoy!

This pleather with sneaker and toaster ensemble hails from India Street.

BQEcouch

Although a little worse for wear, this Brooklyn Queens Expressway number has a certain air of gravity about it I find compelling.

A little brown velour from Green Street.

Behold, the Bedford Avenue crusty couch.

throop

Need to beat the heat? This green leather recliner from Throop Avenue is appointed with a can of Arizona iced tea! And last, but hardly least:

lorimer

What this great DIY number from Lorimer Street may lack in elegance it more than makes up for with good ol’ Greenpoint ingenuity. Note the  presence of two cushions so the user can adjust his (or her) comfort level accordingly. Outstanding!

I have seen a lot of trenchant criticism in my day but likening the McCarren Park Pool to a Nazi death camp? That’s friggin’ harsh!

New York Shitty Day Ender: 100% Calidad

I can think of no better way to wrap up this stifling weekend than with some seriously hot wheels. Like this fabulously decked-out VW van I found on Bartlett Street today.

When I saw this artful arrangement of fliers on Broadway today I simply had to see what it was advertising. Here it is.

Apparently tomorrow, August 15, from 6:00 – 10:00 p.m., there will be an art opening at 99 South 6 Street featuring DJs, art and “free juice & more”. Intriguing— and the price is right!

Today as I was taking my Friday afternoon constitutional I was pleased as punch to happen upon this lovely new mural at South 5 Street and Bedford Avenue. Follows are a few details of it for you to enjoy.

If or when the opportunity presents itself I heartily encourage you, dear readers, to see this wonderful addition to the Southside in person. Photographs hardly do it justice.
