Dead Grill

Out with the old…

One year ago today: Fruit Stand.

Tacky

In a hectic city like NYC, residents need to keep a tight schedule and remind themselves and each other of pressing obligations. With all of the new technology changing the way people think and consume information, it’s nice to see the bulletin board is still part of our communities. At least for now.

One year ago today: Labor Day grill out.

Cushion the blow.

This big blue pull-out couch sits abandoned on the sidewalk, its cushions in disarray. A nice piece of furniture that deserves a new home. The previous owners much have moved into a smaller place. The recession, sigh.

One year ago today: NYC in 1901.

Bent and spent

Coat hangers are a total pain in the ass to throw away. This person just walked to the corner, and shoved them into this trash can. Nice.

One year ago today: NYC Pets.

Sit. Relax.

Not a day goes by when a New Yorker can’t wake up in the morning and have their coffee on the sidewalk, sitting in someone else’s plastic chair at someone else’s coffee table.

One year ago today: De La Vega.

Ratt Reference!

This plastic wheel and plant pot base add some symmetry to this NYC sidewalk and perhaps a little metaphor to our own lives.

One year ago today: Air Conditioner and Sidewalk Wine

From the night sky to the ocean floor

These star and anchor wall hangings are what many New Yorkers revert to when trying to decorate an apartment that already requires all of their cash: cheap decor. Nice nautical theme, however.

Ding!

Yet another microwave is left abandoned on the sidewalks of New York City. There was a time when microwaves where a big deal. Now they’re just a big hassle to New Yorkers changing addresses… and kitchens.

Got your back, trash.

Where New Yorkers once sat, now is a seat for one of the city’s ubiquitous trash bags that line our sidewalks.

Step. Moo.

This L.L. Bean boot lays beside an empty plastic bottle of milk on a sunny August sidewalk in New York City.
