Soccer Tavern is an old bar in now Asian part of Sunset park, which opened in 32. It one of the my favorite bars in NY with a nice mix of the old (Irish, German, Norwegian) and the new (Chinese, Chinese, and Chinese). This is Frank, who has been a regular since the early 60’s.

When Dania asked me why I wanted to take her picture, I said “I am hoping to do a photo series on Islam in New York. To try….” Here she jumped in and with a big smile said “To try and show we are not all terrorist?” Yes, kind of like that!

Reader Contribution Du Jour: LEADERSHIP
This item comes courtesy of my buddy Lost In Brooklyn in Greenwood Heights. He writes (in an email entitled “A Photo For Your Greenwood Heights/Sunset Park Tour”):
Something you may have seen on 4th Ave in the 30’s. A recent reno of the PS and their signage. See if you can figure out why Mic and were…stopped dead in our tracks.
I have serious issues with this image. For starters shouldn’t “Leadership” be located on the other end?

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool, Part II: Kids
Carnade’s photos from our excursion to Sunset Park yesterday are starting to trickle onto Flickr! Of the above shot (which hails from Sunset Park proper) he writes:
Paco (on the right) and his brother having a blast with sticks, dirt, water. The mom kind of looked at me, shrugged her shoulders, and said; Kids…..
You should have seen these kids’ littlest brother. He was completely covered in mud. Clearly these young ‘uns know how to have a good time!

New York Shitty Slide Show Du Jour: Sunset Park Selections
As I have previous stated, yesterday I spent late afternoon and evening with the inimitable Carnade knocking around Sunset Park. In addition to making the acquaintance of Thatcher the Bodega Cat and stumbling upon a particularly nifty piece by Dan Witz we saw (and photographed) a lot of neat stuff. Follows are some highlights from yours truly. Enjoy!
As always you can view this slide show in larger format by clicking here.
