Ever wondered why bedbugs continue to plague our city? The latter two photographs should give you part of the answer.*

Williamspoint Photos du Jour: Special Halloween Edition

North 6 StreetNYS

This is without argument my favorite day of the year. For this reason I put together slide show of spooky stuff from the greater Williamspoint area to get everyone in the Halloween spirit. Enjoy!

Have happy (and safe) Halloween everybody!

I’m not sure if you’ve seen this at the corner of Frost & Kingsland, but it’s well-executed. I think it’s air brush on aluminum.

No Tony, I have not seen this. However, I do know who the artist is. His name is Dan Witz and you can see more of his work (which I love) by clicking here. Thanks for passing along this great find!

East Williamsburg Halloween Watch: Haunted on Hewes Street

I have been woefully remiss in posting some Halloween goodness from my friends to the south. Today I will redress this egregious oversight with some ghoulishly great decor courtesy of 363 Hewes Street. Enjoy!

No, not really! It’s a film shoot for Rescue Me. Lisacat (who took the above footage and photograph) notes:

Filming RESCUE ME with stage smoke and flames in the St. Cecilia’s Rectory building. Nice to learn series creator and actor, Dennis Leary is also an animal person.

Closing on a related note, Rescue Me will be setting the Greenpoint Terminal Market on fire for our collective post-May 2, 2006 dark delectation this evening. Fortunately this time the Fire Department will be on hand before anything goes up in flames. You can learn more about tonight’s fire works by pointing and clicking your way over to Gothamist.

East Williamsburg Photo du Jour: Champ

I have featured the work of “Super” from Montrose Avenue on a number of occasions. (You can see the gradual evolution of this sign by clicking here and here.) Needless to say when I saw this, his latest and fifth attempt, I had to pass it along here. The blue ribbon reading “Champ” is a nice touch— and is very well deserved!

East Williamsburg Photo Du Jour: Dear Sir/Madam

dearsir

It would appear the gentrification of Meserole Street is bravely marching on despite the sour economy. Note how the author of this missive not only addresses his (or her) readers as “sir” and “madam” but he even saw fit to laminate his tome. This person is a class act.
