Trapeze school

Outdoor trapeze school anyone?

I should probably also point out that this is 10 stories up on a pier overlooking the Hudson.

Smurf Detour

This is going to be a terrible film. Does anyone really want to see a CGI smurf film set in New York?

This piece of flyposting almost makes it worth while, although I question the use of 'smurf' as a verb. And if smurf is to be added to the cannon of verbs, I'm sure there are far better meanings than walk.

Any ideas?

Subway art

In the trendier (read: more pretentious) parts of Brooklyn (read: Williamsburg) poster hacking has become quite the trend.

People cut or peel away layers of posters to create collages like the one below.



Then someone draws penises on them.

Clam Broth House

Clam broth?! A handful of clams boiled until the water tastes kinda clamy. Not my cup of tea, and I'm guessing that recently it's lost out to it's trendier Belgian brother, moules mariniere. However, someone must like it, as while this place looks unsurprisingly closed, however it's still alive and kicking in Hoboken.

Disappointingly they no longer serve any clam broth, it's pizza and fish and chips, none of which will be as cool as the sign.

Dark Skies

Red shoes and reflections. Nothing deep and clever here. Just something pretty.
