Greenpoint Photos Du Jour: Live From Manhattan Avenue
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Wow, WTF
Some of you may recall that not terribly long ago I authored a post admonishing motorists not to park in this space. Long story made very short, the bus stop which used to grace the corner of India Street Street and Manhattan Avenue, due to construction, had to be moved ~15 feet north. Therefore— in order to accommodate bus traffic— the parking space which straddles 983 and 983 Manhattan Avenue has been removed. Not that someone who is using the white line on pavement as a guideline would be aware of this, mind you. Although a sign has been erected the powers-that-be have not seen fit to change this. I suppose it goes without saying our meter maids have been enjoying this curious development tremendously.
Now jump forward to today, April 25th. The time is 4:57 p.m. What do I see? Well, the following photographs say it all…
It would appear:
- Even the Department of Transportation is not aware thsi parking space is, in fact, illegal. Or:
- They do not care.
I wonder if this person will get a ticket? (Just kidding.)
