Urban Fur: Scaly At Gantry
Today yours truly knocked around Greenpoint, Williamsburg and Long Island City. It was at Gantry State Park where I encountered this, the first lizard to be featured as an urban fur. His name is Draco (which his winsome keeper made emphatically clear means “dragon”) and all the Greenpointers reading this will be pleased as punch to know he calls our very own Kent Street home!

You’ve been running some of my photos from the flickr pool for a while and I figured I should introduce myself and let you know how much I appreciate your blogging of daily eccentricities. When I moved to New York over a year ago and trying to figure out where to live, NYShitty was one of the things that brought the Garden Spot to my attention. I was drawn by the unpretentious quirkiness that I saw in your pictures and now that I’ve been living here for a while, I don’t want to live anywhere else.
For the past few months I’ve been working on a project about our local treasure, Newtown Creek, that you’ve been running photos from. I’m a photographer professionally but have been bumming around the creek out of personal curiosity and it’s great to be able to have the work in progress seen by a local audience. I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of the pictures already but I have a selection of works so far at my website.
Give Noah’s shots a look-see. They’re amazing!

New York Shitty Day Ender: Alas, Poor Teddy…
even if I didn’t know him well. It’s been just over a year since I documented the testament to Teddy that is the now defunct Infinity Club.
And the props just keep on coming.
What a guy.
