...is how I always misread this sign. I've been meaning to capture this for Citynoise for quite a while--it's one of my favorites. Hand-painted signs like these are disappearing at a rapid rate around here, as hip new wine bars, dog-biscuit bakeries, and baby-yoga boutiques spring up everywhere. Plus, I think the name "Willowdene" is about as pretty as it gets.

Missing Tooth and Open Sky


An open piece of sky in is a joy in any part of NYC. This little patch opens up under the Broadway EL at Melrose in Bushwick, onto a painful time mostly past: the era of the "missing tooth block"....
