Coming To Bedford Avenue: Duane Reade
Filed under: 11211, Abjectecture, Culture War, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
The scaffolding is down at Bedford Avenue and North 3rd Street and oh, what a sight it is!
Of particular interest to yours truly was the promise of a Duane Reade…
which, it should be noted, will be located right across the street from a veritable Williamsburg institution: Kings Pharmacy. I was not the only person who questioned the wisdom of this business placement. A number of passersby took notice as well. Then again, it’s not like Bedford Avenue hasn’t borne witness to this kind of thing before.

Spotted On Meeker Avenue: Tears
When I saw this billboard (which hails from Leonard Street and Meeker Avenue) I smelled a rat. Sure enough, when I got home and looked up the url my suspicions were confirmed. I understand all to well that everyone needs to make a living. But— and this is a big BUT— given the sheer quantity of illegal advertising (foremost among them billboards) I have seen in north Brooklyn over the years I find it a bit difficult to be sympathetic to these people’s plight.
Besides, how many billboards spreading the good news about surgery-free hemorrhoid treatment (replete with a graphic of a prostate gland, no less) does our fair city require? Really?

Although I have featured this ride earlier this month I couldn’t resist passing along a few shots of its latest incarnation.
The freecycled windshield (which the Mister has told me is the back of an old iMac) is an inspired touch!

Now Available At North 7th Street: Mattress Rides
Alas, when I walked by Lance was nowhere to be found. I wonder if he had any takers?
