Nicole, the fabulous head honcha of the Habitat, writes:

Hi Heather!

Just wanted to pass along our flyer for Halloween this weekend, if you’re interested in posting on your site.  We are having a costume contest throughout the night, judging happens at midnight with a $100 cash prize for best costume!  This year we went with  a video game theme. Customers are not required to dress for the theme but our staff does so it kind of all goes together.  Anyway, I attached some pics of the installation we did on Monday so you could see what I’m referring to. Pretty fun stuff!

Very nice, indeed!

Southside Photos du Jour: Halloween 365 Days A Year

I have featured this window (which can be found on South 1st Street between Havemeyer Street and Driggs Avenue) on a number of occasions. While the arrangement changes from time to time I can personally attest that the subject matter remains the same: dolls, horror movie characters and acts of mutilation. Note the solitary ghost at the bottom right-hand corner. A nod to All Hallow’s Eve, perhaps? Only the mind behind this masterpiece knows for certain.

In any case I have to confess I am pretty fond of this new addition!

Williamsburg Halloween Watch: Fillmore Place

There was a little street, just a block long, which lay between Grand Street and North Second Street, called Fillmore Place. This little street was obliquely opposite the house my grandfather owned and in which we lived. It was the most enchanting street I have ever seen in all my life, It was the ideal street— for a boy, a lover, a maniac, a drunkard, a crook, a lecher, a thug, an astronomer, a musician, a poet, a tailor, a shoemaker, a politician. In fact this was just the sort of street it was, containing just such representatives of the human race, each one a world unto himself and all living together, a solid corporation, a close knit human spore which could not disintegrate unless the street itself disintegrated. — Henry Miller, Tropic of Capricorn
