A product can be both clever and ridiculous. As I mentioned, something similar is already being done [and at least that's giving a new life to a piece of Brooklyn that's being replaced].VisuaLingualhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05940655509018040523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-48502210314792664992011-08-26T22:14:38.385-04:002011-08-26T22:14:38.385-04:00the brooklyn dirt is conceptual art. none of you g...the brooklyn dirt is conceptual art. none of you got that. it should be sold on the street as many tourists will buy this. it wont do so well on the web. andy warhol did the soup can as a joke & a statement. he said its 25cents in the supermarket, i bet some rich people would spend thousands. he was right. i dont think this dirt thing is that decorative, it should be like 20bucks, thats a magic number in sales. its a quick buy on the street. no one on this blog thought the artist was clever? i do.laurannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-1133633893357822382011-08-26T13:54:11.182-04:002011-08-26T13:54:11.182-04:00I absolutely ADORE the flower district. There'...I absolutely ADORE the flower district. There's no place in NYC more stocked with strange ferns, foreign & exotic flowers, driftwood, fake birds and other flower-arrangement tchotchke. For generations, my family has worked in the flower arrangement and specialty plant industry, so naturally I have a warm place in my heart for it.<br /><br />However, I've noticed within the past year or so that a lot of retailers on 28th are cutting back on their stock, and I no longer see swarms of buyers clogging the sidewalk anymore (for once, this is a bad thing). I think the days are numbered for the most fragrant block in the city, and it kind of kills me.hoolsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04711488482361277340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-3248009428945434252011-08-26T10:17:04.573-04:002011-08-26T10:17:04.573-04:00tears well in my eyes as i read what is happening ...tears well in my eyes as i read what is happening at the chelsea. thank god you have such a strong stomach to document these things jeremiah. you are fighting the good fight and i hope it will be a small consolation when you win NYC Most Valuable Blogger, a distinction you most certainly deserve.glammanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-69046672548287465752011-08-26T09:01:53.952-04:002011-08-26T09:01:53.952-04:00Whoever is "bottling Brooklyn" is wastin...Whoever is "bottling Brooklyn" is wasting precious land and needs a punch in the nuts.

I used to have the pleasure of walking to work through there around 7am each morning when the traffic was light, but the flower stalls were bustling. What a wonderful way to start the day! And, the scent of flowers and plants is something to behold in such an urban setting. There's so little left now...Laura Goggin Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15517481509431547970noreply@blogger.com
