Better Than Real Because It's Not.

(May 10) I went back to DUMBO.
This building happens to be owned by the MTA itself, and long ago became a symbol of the agency’s FAIL syndrome.
Everyone knows sneakers grow on bridges, not trees.
DUMBO Delights
Grimaldi’s, one of our famed pizza places with a line around the block.

Another thinking tour. My return to the Brooklyn Bridge. Didn’t come up with any good ideas.
This journey began in Chinatown, on Canal St.
While talking to Tony, I ran into this metaphor for our financial system
The Temple of Daniel
Sushi, Blimpie, Pizza, and Pasta. Ohhhh kay!
Thanks to the Empire State Building, it’s a little different every time I’m here.
Brooklyn. The Bridge.
I wandered back down Smith St., past this illusion
And then along Carroll, back to pseudoreal headquarters.

I needed to try and come up with some ideas, so last week I went bridge-walking. I ended up walking off at the end of the bridge and all the way home. Only generated one interesting idea.
The journey this time, started on the Manhattan side.
I find the parts of the bridge over land are actually more interesting views.
The one thing you don’t get a good view of from the bridge, is the bridge.
I like how the light reflects off the water here.
The bridge portion of his trip “officially” ended not at the gift shop, but at (the outside of) Junior’s.

(August 16) Yes, I am still posting about August 16th. (I finally remembered to tag the DUMBO photos though) The day that started out as a small trip to DUMBO to snap a few photos of the Revs sculpture before it is stolen into the private market, didn’t end with me walking back from the mural and heading straight to the York St. Station. Upon seeing one of the Manhattan “waterfalls”, I decided to go visit the trees that are being killed by the Brooklyn Bridge “waterfall”.
As it turned out, the place was full of photographers
Under the Brooklyn Bridge, on the shores of the East River,
you’ll find Brooklyn Bridge Park
Lots of people were sitting around here listening to the waves
The park is presently full of artwork that has a “recycled feel” to it
There’s lots of great views of the Manhattan Bridge here
It seems to be a popular destination and hangout
There’s also a lot of good views of the Brooklyn Bridge
As I would later find out, this seems to be the place to have weddings
The MetLife blimp was in town
Finally, I reached my destination, the trees being poisoned
by the spray from the “waterfall”
And there’s the tree killer, caught in the act
This thing (“(untitled)”) reminds me of candy dishes for some reason
That green dot is me, the dark spot is “(untitled)” above.
This ends my story about August 16th. I just realized I forgot to post my trip to Prospect Park in July. I guess that’s coming next.
