You know those times when you want to reach out, connect, but you don’t feel like talking?
Yeah. So I’m doing a NY themed photo post today. Yes, that’s right, more crappy photos for your viewing pleasure. Try to contain your excitement.
One of my favorite buildings in NY.
Always construction
Entrance to the Holland Tunnel, NJ side
One of the many always there, no matter the weather, asking for money at the traffic jam. It was 98 degrees when I took this, had to be well over 100 standing in the midst of so many running cars on asphalt.
Subway tile art
One of the fanciest gourmet stores in the city
And right outside that fancy store
Got mail?
Wish more grates were like this one, openings too narrow to trap and eat a stiletto heel.
No. This way.
Because I liked it.
The metal coverings to store basements and access to underground workings of the city are an art unto themselves.
Knock knock.
Need a job?
Sunset in the summer
Love these green terraces.
Hungry?
What could be more NY?

I love NY (seriously). The only thing missing in that post is the smell. 😉 The photo at the end of the stairs bring me back to why my shoes get black and why I don’t want to walk barefoot in NYC.

Ooh, yeah. You never want to walk barefoot in NY, lol.
There are many fabulous aspects to this city, but it’s a hard place to raise a family without major $$$.

I love NY. I often wondered what it must be like to live there. It seems so “impossible” to me. I think if I had loads of money, i’d go (to live I mean).

It is pretty impossible without loads of money, very wearing.

Your fringelings believe in themselves and are quite opinionated, if I do say so myself. 😛
No, seriously, your photos evoke something and are chosen with care when you put them here, just like the rest of your images. i bet you didn’t include every photo you took and didn’t just shoot with your eyes shut at every random object you saw. They are not crappy. 😀

Like the silhouette shot of the garbage can and guy. Saw a delivery guy two days ago on his bike, on a bumpy, dirt road, with two pizza boxes and a styrofoam container all propped on their sides in his basket…probably arrived like all call-out food here, looking like that piece-a pizza mess. One of my favorite episodes of “Northern Exposure” was when the NYC doc was getting homesick and the whole town collected all the New York films they could…why did they all have Joe Peschi in them? Is he mayor? Can he deal with Wiener? Can anyone?
Later….

I loved Northern Exposure! And Peschi might as well be on the ticket with Weiner and Spitzer, he’d bring some ethics to the table.

Peschi Spitzer Wiener….that would make a good campaign slogan. If the three of them can’t take NYC back into the glory days of the 1970s, who can? Boss Tweed wasn’t so bad after all, I suppose.

If it weren’t for the Disney effect on Times Square, I would think we were headed back to the 70’s. Funny, even the graffiti is on the rise.

One reason to love Berlin…more graffiti than any city in the world. Going to have to import some Nordic supermen to straighten out the desecration of public spaces…kind of like all the German woodcarvers brought over to raise the tone of the joint in the first place. A friend in Cleve Land does nothing but pics of graffiti, broken windows, rusting bridges, and long-dead, crumbling factories. He’s very popular. Must have some resonance. Ready for a Grace Paley comeback?

Link to your friend’s work? I love photos of urban decay, so many stories in there, so moving.
Yes! We could use a resurgence of Paley’s work.

His link is missing. He squats a lot, in the same buildings…screams at people about global warming and eats all the free day-old doughnuts and drinks watery coffee at St. Malachi’s every morning. If his name wasn’t Claude Greer he could have had a part in Dickens’ “Hard Times.”
