Earlier this week we had a used hypodermic needle jammed into tree at McCarren Park. This morning at 11:45 I stumbled upon the above-depicted item (whose loss I am certain its owner is presently lamenting). A narcotics problem in Greenpoint? Say it ain’t so, Joe, say it ain’t so…

New York Shitty analysis:

Glass Half Full: You know spring has in fact arrived when the hypodermic trees start to bloom.
Glass Half Empty: You we have a serious substance abuse problem hereabouts when even the trees need a fix.

Those of you who wish to marvel at this wonder of nature (perhaps the Audubon Society should be consulted regarding this hitherto undiscovered species of flora?) can do so by heading to Lorimer and Bayard Street. Walk northward on Lorimer Street. It’s the ninth tree on the western side. WARNING/CAVEAT to curiosity seekers/our municipal authorities: this item appears to be used.
