New York Shitty Slide Show Du Jour: Break On Through To The Other Side

This week I did something I have never done before: I walked across the Williamsburg Bridge to Manhattan. I saw a number of interesting things, including a man urinating off of said bridge. At one point he even rested his member on the rail so as to free his hand to forage for his cell phone. It was quite the sight, I assure you. If there is a lesson to be learned here it is this: if you are walking down South 6 Street near the waterfront, carry an umbrella. Or better yet: walk on the other side of the street.

In any case, here are some highlights from my sojourn to Manhattan. I have tossed in some shots from Chinatown as well. Enjoy!

P.S.: This post goes out to kiminnyc whose fascination with our fair city’s call boxes— of all stripes— has made me give them a second look! If Washington D.C. can convert their call boxes into public art for all to enjoy why can’t we, the greatest city in the world, do the same? This Art Nouveau beauty (and many of its brethren) is crying out for some much-needed TLC. Is anyone with me on this? More importantly: does anyone know how we can make this happen?
