Dear Homeowner:

As you may be aware, your property is locateed within an area designated to be rezoned by the Department of City Planning and the City Council in the next few months. This rezoning, which includes restrictions on building size, will have a significant impact on your property (Investment) and will have an impact on your rate of return.

New York laws provide affected property owners with only a limited time to protest these changes. We encourage you to participate in the public hearing on Wednesday JUNE 3, 2009 @ 10AM at Spector Hall located at 22 Reade Street New York, New York.

Go the to the following web sites for more information:

These zoning changes come 3-4 years far too late. Please, come and make a difference.

Protect you retirement investment.

Speaking as someone who thinks the previously mentioned proposed “downzone” doesn’t go far enough I’d love to know who the “we” behind this flier is! Somehow I can’t shake the feeling this missive was not the product of some local mom and pop landowner.

Street Seating Du Jour: Special Memorial Day Edition

recliner

I can think of no better way to kick off summer 2009 in the Garden Spot of the Universe than this comfy (if a bit worse for wear) recliner from Huron Street. As you can see it not only comes with a tree and sidewalk shed for shade, but is also appointed with its very own pylon. I give this piece of street seating two enthusiastic thumbs up!

Happy Memorial Day From New York Shitty!

To everyone in the Garden Spot of the Universe and beyond: have a happy and healthy holiday! Speaking for the Mister and I, we will be making a field trip to the very first neighborhood I ever lived in in New York City! I haven’t set foot there in at least twelve years so it ought to be very interesting to say the least! Needless to say I have charged up my camera and you can plan on reading about my trip down memory lane later on New York Shitty!

These stunning photographs by Mugsniffer are not only lovely in their own right, but they are also proof I am not the only person who has noticed Greenpoint’s recent shallot invasion!
