(May 10) The point of my trip out on May 10th was to see the de-fence Project. I got there too late in terms of lighting, but it got torn down the next day. Where I live, the landlord has put in dangerous illegal apartments the city knows about and has done nothing about, but put up some art without a permit, and the state takes immediate action.

When I reached the end, the end was near for de-fence.

(May 10) I went back to DUMBO.

so much fail you need a mop
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.

Although the fares haven’t gone up yet, the subway is already too expensive. I predict walking is going to be on the rise.

Someone was in too much of a hurry though.

I decided to walk from the Financial District to the West Village to save $2
