New York Shitty Day Ender: Greenpoint Fashion Watch

Jan
17

When I spied this lass on the B62 yesterday I simply had to capture her for all posterity. Every item on her person— and I mean every single article of clothing and accessories— was purple. Purple earrings, purple fingerless gloves, purple boots with purple heels, purple purse, etc. This is Manhattan Avenue fashion at its finest, folks!

Greenpoint Photos du Jour: Life Begins at 70!

Dec
21

Many a Greenpoint resident is familiar with 177 Nassau Avenue. It is inhabited by one of our community’s more lovable eccentrics. Well as of yesterday I noticed he, an avid runner, has made an additi0n to his storefront running the New York City Marathon (which he has done for sometime). Do take a moment to look at his creation in greater detail by clicking here. It will make you smile!

Spotted On Manhattan Avenue: Great Wall Of Beer

Oct
04

I know what you’re thinking, gentle readers:

How “great” can this wall possibly be?

It is nothing short of breath-taking, my fellow Garden Spotters. We’re talking at least thirty solid feet of suds. Do go and behold the Greenpoint glory for yourselves— you will not be disappointed!

I have seen this chap around the neighborhood for some time. Alas, I never worked up the gumption to talk to him— until today. I’m glad I did. Nice to meet you, Thomas— and thank you for gracing the Garden Spot with your inimitable style!

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Live From The Bath Tub Races!

Sep
17

Laura Hoffman (who took the above photographs) writes:

Hi Heather!

The bathtub races were awesome. I went with my youngest son and oldest grandson, while we waited for his parents and new brother to pick us up. Even though we couldn’t stay for the whole event,  we had fun. There was good music & food. And the thought of tub racing was hysterical. Thought you’d like to see the photos… When my oldest son, wife and new baby picked us up, we found ourselves driving behind a Bat Mobile.

AWESOME!
