Southside Degentrification Watch: Street Furniture Selections
Today I decided to take a walk to Grand Ferry Park. I do this when I need some peace and quiet (and believe you me, after all the Greenpoint Nazi/homophobia stuff I really needed it). In so doing I discovered some stellar pieces of street furniture. Here they are.
RIVER STREET RECLINERS
On a beatific day such as this, who wants to stay outdoors? Pop out those bucket seats and get some sun! Ingenious.
KENT AVENUE FUTON
I found this one to be absolutely breathtaking. This is because it smelled so fucking bad I was gasping for air! And now the piece de resistance…
SOUTH 1 STREET: ANNOTATED
If my memory serves me correctly this mattress has inhabited South 1st Street for about a month. Note the “No Dumping” sign in the background. So it goes. Anyhoo, in the elapsing time this item has been employed as an ad hoc public forum/chatroom.
Sleep’n on the street. Struglin.
Bedbuggin’ out!

Williamsburg Photo Du Jour: Q59 PSA
And I thought the B43 was bad…*

*Speaking of which, I spied a Kiss Army/Clockwork Orangesque fashion statement on said piece of public transportation today.
I have to confess: I sort of like this. I wanted to ask this woman what gives but she in deep thought (writing in a journal) and I didn’t want to interrupt her out of common courtesy. I hate it when people interrupt my train (or bus) of thought.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: More About The Pulaski Bridge
Filed under: 11101, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Long Island City, Newtown Creek, Queens
Blair (who took the above photograph) writes:
Hi, I love your photos of the Pulaski you took yesterday. I am not sure if this is a permanent installation or “street art” or what.. but my friend described it as looking like tree poop. The photo was taken at 10:30am Tuesday morning.. and that wood was bolted into the ground.
I noticed this piece of public seating (or “tree poop”— take your pick) last night. I even took several photographs of it, but none of them came out. I for one like it— but have no idea who (or what) is behind it. Anyone out there have the 411? If so, please share via comments.
Thanks!
