Last night, a year later, I walked by and was so saddened to see the once wild and lively corner absolutely dark and silent.<br /><br />I'm hoping some good graffiti comes along...Laura Goggin Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517481509431547970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-11417796407589358162011-11-01T13:33:30.982-04:002011-11-01T13:33:30.982-04:00That’s an inspired post.

I initially mistook it for fiction, so evocative – almost dreamily so – is the description.<br />Must have a look – and snag that copy of “Desperately Seeking Susan” for a peek at Love Saves the Day.BabyDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04751432569519540728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-63886534427509579882011-11-01T13:26:04.568-04:002011-11-01T13:26:04.568-04:00Nice slice of life post.

What the F....was I thinking? <br />The other night I had a date with a Wall Street attorney (don't ask me why, just horny I guess). As usual I couldn't stop myself, started ranting as we walked past Mars Bar location to the Bowery. She looked the other way as I moaned about loss, gentrification, blindness, NYC history.

Amazing what life grows up in the cracks when a place is abandoned in a city as crowded as Manhattan. Yes indeed - what would take root there if development was halted for a year or more? Here in this corner of Brooklyn, no such life took root. Aside from the odd squatter, the empty, half-built condos remained just that - empty. <br /><br />t.cityofstrangershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02947330899694350293noreply@blogger.com
