New York Shitty Slide Show Du Jour: Wythe Avenue & North 13 Street, Revisited
As I noted last week, the Cereal Killers mural (as seen above) is no longer with us. Since today’s weather was (by recent standards) downright chilly I decided to swing by and see how things were progressing. Follows is a slideshow of (what I presume to be) the finished product. Enjoy!

Choice quote:
I’m not sure I would ever recommend anyone go to the McCarren Park Pool unless you just got out of prison.
That might be a bit of an overstatement. However, the anecdote about the lock and link to the unofficial McCarren Park Pool’s web site (which features some pretty amusing stock photography, including a fellow holding a bottle of beer)— among many other things— make this tome worth a moment of one’s time. Enjoy, gentle readers— or not!
Now if you don’t mind, I am off to acquire a slew of locks and white t-shirts to sell to pool goers at 300% mark-up. One woman’s misfortune is another’s business opportunity!
Props go to Miss Mousey Brown for bringing this to my attention!
