Found On West Street: A Very Unique Gift Idea
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Stuff That Makes Miss Heather Happy
This afternoon en route to our newest piece of public space I swung by Poo Corner to see how things are shaking. Aside from the above bag of poo I am pleased to report no new turdage! However, I did find something of a curious, if non-crap related— nature. Three feet away from the above-depicted “present” I found another plastic bag. Intrigued (and against my better judgement), I opened it see what was inside.
To discover a “gift-wrapped” coconut. Thoughts/insight, anyone?

What’s more, you’ll be supporting some immensely talented local artists in the process. Check it out!

Spotted At 931 Manhattan Avenue: Activity
Many north ‘Pointers are familiar with the above storefront. For a very long time it was a Polish restaurant named Damis. Since its closure, this space has seen a succession of short-lived restaurants (the latest being a diner). Well, today after taking the above photograph a very nice man on site informed me this, its latest incarnation, will be a sandwich shop. Let’s hope it sticks!

These shots were taken today at the newly-opened pop-up park on Java Street. Now if we could get some benches on the pier we’ll be all aces! NOTE/CAVEAT: if you decide to check this out be advised you can only gain entrance via Java Street.

*Whose “activity”, while not completely eradicated, has seriously diminished.
This makes only one shit (and a somewhat stealthy one at that) in four days.

We use a variety of beer blends and in many instances adding quality spirits to creatively do more with beer. Moreover, a collection of signature cocktails created by top mixoligists from Moonshine will be revealed at the opening.
