For the newer readers out there, every year starting around this time I run daily photographs of Christmas decor from my community. Kicking off this, 2009’s selections, are a quartet hailing from Williamspoint’s main drags. Enjoy!

Williamsburg Street Art Du Jour: Bedford Avenue Bunny

This post goes out to Greenpoint’s most famous citizen, Edie the strap-hanging hamster. It may have taken a brain trust years to build the Internet, but it only took one very cute rodent to crash my site. Repeatedly.

P.S.: This post goes out to Posterchild. It would appear I have become his muse.
In regards to the above opus he wrote:
In the course of researching this work, I discovered that machines like the one I’m describing already exist. They are known as “Reverse Vending Machines†and I think that they are an absolutely outstanding idea!
Special thanks to Miss Heather of New York Shitty for inspiring this piece; she wrote to me: “You should hit some of the pay phones in my hood. They’re usually employed as trash receptacles for empty fifths of vodka and/or brandy. Among other things.â€
Thanks for getting me thinking about how people really use these payphones, and sorry that this didn’t make it’s way out to Greenpoint!
160 North 12 Street PSA: No Peeing Please

Upside down or otherwise I can personally attest that there is a public urination problem with this site. It makes me wonder what will happen when this site reaches fruition as a seven story hotel/ad hoc pissoir.

Lost on Metropolitan Avenue: Pippin
When I spied this flier (which hails from Metropolitan Avenue just north of the BQE) soliciting help to find a cat named Pippin I could not help but pass it along here. If any you have seen this handsome gent with “bright green eyes”, an “oatmeal-gray” coat and “chipped front right fang” or know of his whereabouts please contact his people at the above telephone numbers. Thanks!
