A brief Op Ed from yours truly:
Whenever I read/hear about violence at the Cooper Houses I think of this young woman:

Kayleigh deserves to live in just as safe a home as the kitten she entrusted to my care. I will never forget her compassion via doggedness in ensuring the kitten she found (or more accurately: found and “chose” her!) would have a happy, safe life. We, as a community, should be doing our damnedest to give her the same.

Found this wonderful draft on Huron Street. Thought you might enjoy it.
Viva Greenpoint.
Although not on par with this, it does have a certain je ne sais quoi. Happy Friday!

Urban Artifact: Alas, Poor Teddy…
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Urban Artifact, WTF
This teddy (which has presided over Greenpoint Avenue at Franklin Street for at least 76 days) has undergone an interesting transformation. When I first spied him, he was donning a gas mask. A week later he was brandishing a sign which read “Crime doesn’t pay”. Now he calls Jack Daniels his companion and sports two cigarette burns on his noggin. OUCH!
