Better Than Real Because It's Not.

(Jun 19) Roosevelt Island is about to get a large dose of change. It’s going to be change they won’t like one bit. It’s inevitable though. Underscoring this, it’s a Bruce Ratner project now, who will co-own the buildings, which come with free land, courtesy of the city. I can’t help but think the city is poor at selling itself to have to give so much away to those who will directly profit from this initiative. The idea that anyone has gotten a piece of Roosevelt Island free just seems scandalous.
Arrival. Deep underground.
It is a beautiful place, with a view of the east side.
Aside from the subway, and a bridge to Astoria, the tram is the only other way on and off the island.
And then on the other side of the tram bridge… you’re there already.
Now you see it… soon you won’t.
A familiar sight
The old, and falling down
The new and unfinished
The UN-United Nations

(December 31) The last day of a lousy year.
As the morning begins, it seems I am Mr. Phelps. Or Mr. Hunt, if you prefer.
This message will self destruct in ….
Later that night as I returned home, there were some ducks (geese?) who apparently didn’t get the memo about the pond being frozen over.
They emphatically did not wish to participate in this photoblog.
Good riddance, 2010.

(May 25) I was planning on going into Manhattan, but it was already getting dark, and I made the decision to photograph around the Gowanus Canal instead, and I saved $4 which I sadly need.
Seeing animals in Superfund waters frightens me.
I want to chase the duck out of that poisonous water
There’s a lot riding on him now
This always reminds me of Billy for some reason
Down 1st. St.
Looking back toward home
I still don’t know what this place is
The early part of this jaunt covers material I’ve photographed before, and this is not the end. Yet.
