New York Shitty Street Seating Du Jour: Naugahyde With Benefits
Filed under: 11211, Bloomblight, Street Furniture, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
Okay, this specimen is not technically a street couch: I spied it through a peep hole in construction fence on Gerry Street. However, I felt the magnificent melange of material (including a broken figuring of the Virgin Mary) gracing said sofa merited a mention. Closing on a related note, I am pleased to announce there is a Flickr group dedicated to showcasing world-wide street seating. It is called Sofafree!! and it can be seen by clicking here.
Oh yeah, here’s my favorite of the lot. It hails from Vancouver.

TOMORROW: Old Tymers Day
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This item was brought to my attention by my buddy across the creek, Queens Crap. Tomorrow starting at 9:00 a.m. the folks at the recently re-launched Phun Factory will be hosting Old Tymers Day: a collaborative project by over 50 graffiti artists from the 1960’s – 1980’s which will give North 15 Street and its environs a much-needed makeover! You can learn more about this event and Phun Factory by heading over to the latter’s temporary web site. Check it out!

Southside Photos Du Jour: Presenting The Eggman
When I happened upon this very special super hero and his anthropomorphic ovum sidekick on Broadway I knew I had to pass along the glory here on New York Shitty. Not only has this dynamic duo replaced Hongo Killer as yours trulys favorite corporate spokes… um… things but it also gives me an excuse to give props to the original Eggman!
Oooh, Eggman!
