Spotted On Montrose Avenue: HYacinth 7-2041
Filed under: 11206, Bushwick, Bushwick Brooklyn, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn
It was the delightfully kitschy photo gracing this advertisement which initially caught my eye. Then I noticed the address.
I’m on Montrose Avenue.
I thought to myself.
I wonder where 201 Montrose Avenue is?
Then it hit me.
I was there.

P.S.: For those of you are wondering, yes I simply stumbled upon this piece of art work while walking around. For reasons only known to the person responsible he/she saw fit to leave this item at its former “home”. This is one of the most uncanny experiences I have ever had on a walk. Amazing.
