Not only is the teddy still there (albeit with what appears to be a tear cascading down his fuzzy mug), but he is presently sporting some arm bands in the manner of “repurposed” gaskets. Snazzy!

For those of you who are wondering what this day of celebration is about (HINT: It ain’t “Mexican Independence Day”) the lovely proprietress of Huitzilli suggests this tome. And I offer this. Please put down the margarita and give ’em a read. Enjoy!

The offerings may be dwindling, but I am pleased to report as of today, April 25th, the Greenpoint Avenue teddy bear is still in effect!
Here’s looking at you, kid…
BREAKING: Attempted Suicide On The G?
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Stuff The Makes Heather Sad
Those of you who have been wondering what all the activity is about at the Greenpoint and India Street entrances of the Crosstown Local— or are unaware that this is even coming to pass: I am very saddened to report that apparently someone jumped in front of an oncoming train. This is all I know presently. Those of you who are headed off for your evening commute and have to rely upon the G, the B43 or 62 buses should expect serious crowding and delays.
UPDATE, 6:30 p.m.: Here’s Gothamist’s take on what happened.
UPDATE, 7:05 p.m.: Here’s “Fox New’s” take.
From The New York Shitty Inbox: Found On Greenpoint Avenue
Yes, folks: it would appear we have our second “found” pup in as many days. My tipster, Donna, writes:
Another found dog. He was found on Greenpoint Ave. tonight. He’s at Dog Habitat.
Anyone who has information as to whom this fella belongs should contact Dog Habitat via email at: rescue@doghabitat.org. Thanks!
UPDATE, 9:16 p.m.: Here’s this cutie after (quite) a bit of deforestation!

Yours truly’s favorite urban artifact (and de facto mascot for the Garden Spot) is not only upright once again, but he (?) has received an offering in the form of a toilet handle. Fascinating.
