New York Shitty Photo Du Jour: Williamsburg Bridge
Filed under: 10002, Lower East Side, Lower East Side Manhattan, Manhattan, New York City
I have grown to be a connoisseur of “street penises” over the years. Placement really is key. I would hazard to guess this person has spent a lot of time looking at penises. Possibly his own. I discern a measure of artistic training as well. The pubic hair is a nice touch. I don’t see that very often…

Reader Contribution Du Jour: What Is This?
Filed under: 10002, BAD ASS, Lower East Side, Lower East Side Manhattan, Wow, WTF
This curiosity was found by a fellow Greenpoint resident we’ll call “S”. It presently resides under the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg(h) Bridge. About it she writes:
Double take: Giant flat black camper with window gates and fences chained on. The one of the door and window is worth a closer look…
Indeed it is.
Urban assault vehicle or Airbnb rental?
I am putting my money on both. Perhaps EVGrieve or Jeremiah can shed some light regarding this tenement on wheels? Anyone?
UPDATE: Someone was thoughtful enough to point out this looks like something from Escape From New York:
Great catch, John! The funny thing is this vehicle has New York state plates. However, I have spied and shot graffiti featuring Snake Plissken along the north Brooklyn waterfront. This one hails from Greenpoint.
And this one hails from the Brooklyn side of the Williamsburg Bridge:
Maybe they’re trying to escape from Brooklyn? Hmm…
