New York Shitty Day Ender: Live From 216 India Street
Filed under: 11225, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Stuff That Makes Miss Heather Happy
There was a flurry of activity today at this, the much-anticipated site of some much-needed (and long overdue) green space in Greenpoint!
And to this end the proprietor of Beata Delicatessen donated a case of H2O of the wise variety to keep these ladies (and gentlemen) hydrated! You can track Design.Plot’s progress by checking out Domestic Construction’s blog.* You go, girls!
*Do give their tire-acquisition post a read. It’s GREAT!
Greenburg Photo du Jour: Jerzy Popieluszko Square
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This afternoon as I was passing through J. Po. Square (as I call it), I finally had the pleasure of meeting the woman responsible for keeping the area around Mr. Popieluszko’s statue spic and span. Her name is Regina and today she and her husband were sweeping and bagging up leaves with a great sense of purpose; tomorrow morning at 10:30 a.m. there will be an event to celebrate the life (and tragic death) of the namesake of this park! Those of you who happen to be in the area— or are simply curious— should swing by and check it out!

It’s been a long time since I have given these events a mention. Today I got a swift reminder in the way of the following little guy dwelling in my photo pool! While not quite ready for adoption yet, he will be at Muddy Paws on Sunday. To give you a taste of what you are in for, gentle readers, I present for your viewing pleasure the following video of “Stripey”. WARNING/CAVEAT: the following footage is incredibly, mind-numbingly cute!

Jay (who sent me the latter two photos) notes:
Spotted on Franklin St inside the arcade at the auto repo lot. Where else? Only in Greenpoint!
What yours truly wants to know is if the ensuing demonstration/revolution will be on Twitter.
*Props go out to a lady named Peggy for this. Good one!
