A Green Street PSA: Please

Given this building is located next door to Greenpoint’s pride and joy, The Viridian, methinks it takes very little deduction to figure out yo whom this missive is directed. In light of the fact some Viridian residents saw fit to use the indoor garden used as a doggie dumping ground I wouldn’t bet against it anyway.

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool: Bloomblight With Benefits

When I saw this nondo in my photo pool I recognized it immediately: it graces (?) the corner of Herbert and North Henry Street. What I didn’t know is this hulking eyesore— despite its decrepit condition— has a resident. So it goes in the smash-jaw world of north Brooklyn real estate.

His name is Monkey and he wants it to be known he is not a stray. Special thanks goes out to Lisacat for sharing this important news with us.

Spotted On Stanton Street: The Chrysler Building

July 6, 2010 ·

Over the years your truly has become a connoisseur of tattoos. This is because north Brooklyn is teeming with them. Most of them are pretty bad. This having been stated I rather like this one: a panoramic view of the New York City skyline including my favorite building. The person whose arm this graces plans to continue the cityscape up his arm. I was told the Brooklyn Bridge is on his agenda— and that the Chrysler is favorite building too! In fact he claimed to have known someone who lived there. This person had a pond on one of the terraces. It was filled with baby alligators. Curiously enough, I do not feel compelled to fact check this.
