Village Highlights

I am delighted that Dennis has been blogging up a storm in my absence so I don’t have to force myself to write anything. Instead, I thought I’d upload a few photos from today’s trip to New York’s Lower East Side. (Yeah, last time was Upper West Side; I’m making my way around….)
Here’s an ivy-covered building in an arrested state of deterioration. (I don’t know what they do there, but I couldn’t leave it alone.) IvyBldg.jpg
A classic old firehouse best described as charming:

And finally, a cat taking charge of a store’s inventory:

(It will all add up, I’m sure….)

    Eric – Your photo of the “ivy covered building” on Houston & Bowery really brought back some memories for me. At the foot of the building are the Liz Christy Gardens (New York’s first community garden I believe). The wife and I used to love to take summer evening strolls there as newlyweds. Glad to see it’s still there.

    Todd, thanks for pointing out what that is! I’ll have to go back and look more closely the next time.
