a thing in 32 photos in 2017 east village showing 2017 only · show all years New York City, you are at times, the most-cruel mistress. Must've been a sick bike. Sunday night I watched the Michael Alago Netflix documentary called "Who the F**ck is That Guy" and there were some great shots of my Alphabet City neighborhood from the early 80s. Found this cat lady action figure out for the trash on my block. On Wednesday morning, I walked out my building and noticed that someone had turned one of the willow tree stumps into a giant sculpture of Groot from Avengers. We wandered around and grabbed a bite after. On my walk home spotted *GASP* a Starbucks in the East Village. The neighborhood has always been changing, but this was a weird milestone. On the walk home spotted a neighborhood flyer alerting people to death of Eddie. I think it's sweet when people do this. While out walking Maddy... ...I noticed someone had put up a passive aggressive generation burn note on the La Plaza community bulletin board. Spicy! Wispy clouds on Monday. Met up with this guy to help him with some tech stuff. ...exploring La Plaza with Maddy. Thursday afternoon... On the way home I picked through a bunch of awesomely shitty sci books that someone had chucked. Oh....you know, just enjoying my egg & cheese croissant and enjoying a little Saturday sunshine in Tompkins....what are you up to? Saw this great flyer while out and about on Thursday. Afterward's we hit Lucy's for a few late night drinks. ...we were the only people in the place. Smoke tree blossing on my block in Alphabet City! So Dr. Seussy! Stopped off at Stromboli for this top notch lunch with a beer. Mmmm. Love the late 80s beastie boys photo they have on their wall. ...Dan Smith (who will teach you to play guitar) has a brand new flier! Later that afternoon I took a snowy walk through the park over to... Watched the kids in my neighborhood ride back and forth in a giant bike gang pulling wheelies. Someone put up this great piece of anti-trump art in Tompkins. Another snowman spotted on my walk home. ...looks like this. It makes me feel... Woke up to a snow storm on Thursday. When the weather outside... Nothing worse than coming back to rainy snow in New York after a January trip to Florida. Boooo. Was still snowing in the afternoon. ...the snow started coming down. NO CASH! punk show bands always have the best names.
