Cycling and Tailoring.

Riding my bike last night, this storefront caught my attention.  It's Plaza Cleaners on 7th Ave and Union.  Certain color schemes seem to have this almost narcotic effect on me.

Prospect Park film roll.

While skiing across Prospect Park, Todd Bieber found an exposed roll of film laying in the snow.  He decided to have it developed and to try to find it's owners.  Take a look at this most incredible video and story.  My heart is still warm from it.

As a side note, how man of you still shoot film?  I do on occasion.

Cold Wet Day!

Waiting for the F train yesterday at the 4th Ave stop, on the new temporary overpass they just opened for this big Culver Viaduct Restoration project.  Yes that's ice that formed overnight on the chain-link fence. Yup!  

The overpass/bridge will take passengers over the train tracks, onto the temporary platform that's by the express track.  In the pic you can make out the now closed Manhattan-bound platform that's already being worked on.

Who are the people in your neighborhood?

Every Tuesday and Friday be sure to check out my new column at F'd in Park Slope.  I'll be posting mini profiles of the people that you meet when you're walking down the street.

A snowman at Prospect Park from around 2006, but the shot to me feels like from circa 1970.
