Reader Contribution Du Jour: LEADERSHIP
This item comes courtesy of my buddy Lost In Brooklyn in Greenwood Heights. He writes (in an email entitled “A Photo For Your Greenwood Heights/Sunset Park Tour”):
Something you may have seen on 4th Ave in the 30’s. A recent reno of the PS and their signage. See if you can figure out why Mic and were…stopped dead in our tracks.
I have serious issues with this image. For starters shouldn’t “Leadership” be located on the other end?

Donations Wanted: BARC Fundraiser
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Crap Map, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
As many of you reading this are probably aware, yours truly has a fondness for fur kids. This is especially true of cats. For this reason I feel compelled to pass along that BARC is seeking donations of art for their upcoming fundraiser. Julie writes:
Just to confirm, the event is scheduled for Monday, September 13th at My Two Dogs, 434 Manhattan Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11222 (718-963-0400).
The time will be from 7 PM until approximately 10 PM. Any artwork that artists would like to donate can be dropped off at BARC Shelter, 253 Wythe Ave, or I can arrange to pick it up. BARC hours are Tues-Sat from 12-5.
The event is free for people who just want to attend. If someone wants to bring home a piece of artwork they’ll donate $250 and they’ll select the piece they want (names of all the people who donate $250 go into a jar and are picked at random- first name picked selects first and so on).
I have been advised that any and all artists donating work should attach a piece of paper to their work with the following information:
- their name
- their email address (NOTE: this is for BARC’s purposes only.)
- name of the piece (if there is one)
- media used in the piece
The deadline for submissions is September 1st, so any and all interested in submitting work should get hustling!

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool, Part II: Kids
Carnade’s photos from our excursion to Sunset Park yesterday are starting to trickle onto Flickr! Of the above shot (which hails from Sunset Park proper) he writes:
Paco (on the right) and his brother having a blast with sticks, dirt, water. The mom kind of looked at me, shrugged her shoulders, and said; Kids…..
You should have seen these kids’ littlest brother. He was completely covered in mud. Clearly these young ‘uns know how to have a good time!
