Greenpoint Photo du Jour: Head

If you want to see something interesting go to Commercial Street. There you will find a tree about 70 feet west from the entrance to the Access A Ride facility. Not only has it melded into an adjoining fence, but it has a face! It also has a fifth of some kind liquor bottle incorporated into its trunk. Fascinating.

Those of you who live in and around Noble Street and own motor vehicles will undoubtedly find this item (which was posted on a crosswalk sign on Franklin Street) of interest. This upcoming Tuesday, June 7, a company named “Get Yours” will be filming at the above-listed locations. They have been sanctioned to film from (and I quote) 5:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. and will be bringing in the tow trucks the prior evening (Monday, June 6) at 10:00 p.m. Good times!

Today yours truly had the pleasure of showing the inimitable Kevin Walsh of Forgotten New York around our fair burgh. It was on the corner of West and Huron Street that we bumped this festively dressed group of people. I was told by one of them they were filming a music video for a band called “She Say’s She’s Ms. Blat”. The more curious among you can check out their Myspace page by clicking here!

I am pleased to announce that as of today the misguided East River Ferry sign at the corner of India Street and Franklin Street has been corrected. And as my buddy Tony presciently prognosticated, someone has wasted no time adding a little commentary!

Urban Fur: Cat

Yours truly is acclimatized to seeing a number of unusual things in the Garden Spot. This is a large part of the reason I live here. Needless to say when I saw a young woman walking a cat on a leash on Green Street I took it all in stride. I inquired as to this chap’s name.

Cat

She replied and then went on to explain he is her sister’s cat and she had been charged with taking him for a walk. She added that he doesn’t really have a name (hence why he is called “cat”) but when he gets one it will be a big one because he is (and I quote) “awesome”.

That, he is!
