From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part II: St. Elias Revisited
Some of you might recall that last month I got word that the cross gracing St. Elias was showing signs of instability. Well, it has since been removed and a chap named Don has the scoop as to how this came to pass. He writes:
Miss Heather:First – Love your blog, I read it religiously! Just thought I’d send you a quick follow-up picture to one of your posts back on March 29th about the church on Kent Street (http://www.newyorkshitty.com/greenpoint-goodness/?p=57333). Turns out the FDNY was there on Sunday removing the cross.

From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part I: Art Love Japan
This item comes courtesy a chap named Kiyoto. She writes:
The recent earthquake and tsunami in Japan has caused unimaginable damage, but despite the distance we can still aid Japan with help of the New York community. As artists and designers, the organizers of ART LOVE JAPAN were inspired to put together a creative event that could benefit those in need in Japan while also promoting a philanthropic spirit in the neighborhood. At this 3 day event, works donated by artists and designers will be sold for $20 a piece on a first come, first served basis. All proceeds will go towards charities supporting earthquake victims in Japan. Event and charity details are available at www.artlovejapan.com.
ART LOVE JAPAN kicks off on Friday, April 8th with an opening party featuring live music by SHIV HURRAH and POW WOW! The event closes on Sunday, the 10th with a performance by THE BEETS. Asahi Beer, The Natural Wine Company, and Big Tree Bottles have generously provided refreshments for the event. We hope you can come and join us to support Japan!
Thank you.
Check it out!
