Williamsburg Photos Du Jour: Nature’s Revenge
My hat goes off to the peeps at Red Rose & Lavender (and Nature’s Revenge) for tickling yours truly pink with their ongoing and incredibly delightful re-purposing of this derelict construction site. Bravo!

Greenpoint Street Art Du Jour: Manhattan Avenue
I featured a piece not unlike this one not too long ago. In my post I asserted the woman in question was Veronica Lake. A number of readers disagreed with my assessment and in light of more, um, information I agree with them. My educated guess is this is Janet Leigh. Thoughts, anyone?

UPDATE, June 13, 2010: My mom nailed it. She is Anita Ekberg. So there have you!
Greenpoint Restaurant Watch: Bombay Garden Update
I have a confession to make: I have been casing this— Greenpoint’s first and only Indian restaurant— for weeks in the hope I would learn when they are going to open. Each and every time I have walked away disappointed. UNTIL TODAY!
I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that “2020” is a typo. Only one more week, folks! In the meantime you can peruse their menu by clicking here.

TOMORROW: Mister Market
Filed under: 11101, 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Long Island City, Long Island City Queens, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This item has been brought to my attention by that dynamic duo, Tommy and Roy, better known as the Alter Boys. Tomorrow they, along with a number of other notable north Brooklyn businesses (like Kill Devil Hill!) will be selling their wares at the Mister Market. The whole shebang kicks off at noon. Why not swing by and see what they’re got cooking?
Mister Market
June 13, 2010 12:00 – 6:00 p.m.
Public Assembly
70 North 6 Street
Brooklyn, New York 11211
You can get more information about this event by checking out Mister Market’s web site.
In closing (and on a shameless self-promoting note) I’d like to remind everyone that the “closing reception” for my photography show at Creek & Cave is tomorrow starting at 3:30 p.m. You can get the full 411 by clicking here.
Miss Heather
P.S.: Lest any of you are wondering why I put “closing reception” in quotation marks it is because I have gotten word that my show has been extended! And somehow “middling reception” does not strike me as being very snappy.
