enjoyed reading this, glad it exists, & delighted to be cited, but didn't quite capture the absurdity of brooklandia as i experienced it & what made DIY venues feel so special. structure felt a bit muddled & could've used a ton more historical/economic context (& more todd p., really). #nyc #books

Around 12:45 AM I met the DOT paving crew in Forest Hills, where they were laying asphalt at night so fewer New Yorkers have to commute around workzones.

Recently encountered an issue with fire hydrants in NYC. #NYCDOT parking rules state that vehicles cannot park closer than 15 feet to a #hydrant. DOT installed planters about 5 feet from a hydrant giving the impression that parking on the other side of the planter is legal. I am suggesting the planter be…

Good morning from Harlem
#Photography #GoodMorning #Sunrise #NYC

Looking through an arched window two hours after sunrise the sky fades from orange at the horizon to light blue up above. Most of the sky is full of finely textured clouds that look almost like flocks of birds. Pointed roofs of Harlem brownstones are silhouetted across the street, and a taller apartment building can be seen in the distance. The window is grimy on the bottom.

It remains silly that the "express" F train switches to its old routing on weekends (stopping at queensbridge instead of court st), despite being slower to do so and also confusing af for riders. Make it make sense.

amazing piece but basically woke up in the middle of the night wondering about the unanswered question here: if book freak richard hell has been in the same wee spot since '74, what does he do when his shelves are full? does he have storage spaces like verlaine? does he deaccession at the strand? #nyc #books

If you imagine #NYC police as Cartman (from South Park) doing the whole "respect mah authoritah!" bit, the behavior of the NYPD around the snowballs incident makes complete sense. It's not that anyone was hurt, nor was there any damage, but their fragile egos just can't handle not having their authority respected. Even when they do completely dumb shit like wandering into the m…

The NYPD's dragnet against revelers who took part in the viral snowball fight in Washington Square Park on February 23 has now nabbed a second New Yorker—this time, a teenager.

On Wednesday morning, 18-year-old East Harlem resident Eric Wilson Jr. turned himself in at his local precinct, and was arraigned yesterday on misdemeanor charges of obstructing government administration and harassment in the second degree, according to the Manhattan DA's office. Following the snowball fight, the NYPD…

Looking through an arched window fifty-three minutes after sunrise the orange sun is just above the buildings on the right and the slate blue sky is slashed with several dramatic lines of grey clouds above the horizon. Pointed roofs of Harlem brownstones are silhouetted across the street, and a taller apartment building can be seen in the distance. The window is grimy on the bottom.

Looking through an arched window an hour after sunrise the blue sky is crossed by a single thick band of white clouds. The sun is just behind the buildings on the right hand side. Pointed roofs of Harlem brownstones with red brickwork are across the street, and a taller apartment building can be seen in the distance. The window is grimy on the bottom.

Looking through an arched window half an hour after sunrise the sun is just above the buildings, making a dramatic lens flare that bisects the frame horizontally at the bottom with a curved yellow line and multi-colored petals below.

Darkness, where all you can see in the darkness is a set of three lantern lights on a black pole. The lanterns are old-timey looking, with yellow light glowing through the glass lantern windows. Really only two lanterns are visible, with the third being behind the pole. There is white snow piled on top of the lanterns, and also covering the arms of the lanterns, and also slightly covering the pole. There's also snow falling (blurry) around the lanterns. It's both spooky and beautiful.
