Bay Ridge Towers

March 17th, 2012



Built in the 1970s at the northern tip of Bay Ridge, this behemoth and its nearby sibling dwarf the other buildings in this low-lying neighborhood. I doubt you can see them from space, but they're quite visible from Staten Island. And they'll undoubtedly pop up in future pictures, so at least now you'll know what they are.

Concert at UCA in Brooklyn

March 17th, 2012



I somehow managed to capture the one brief period when no one was playing their instruments except the percussionist. But I didn't want to do a second take because I felt like I was distracting people. So, with that said, enjoy this exciting video!

Part of a 270-foot-long mural by Groundswell (some of whose other works we've already seen). Check out what the wall used to look like.

Bay Ridge Theatre

March 17th, 2012



What a glorious progression: theater, then bingo hall, then McDonald's Express.

UPDATE: People working out at the New York Sports Club here can get some good looks at parts of the old theater's interior. For example, compare these two photos: theater, gym.
