The more things change, the more the past reveals itself to us ...

Good news: No more insufferable Marc Jacobs signs, hand-painted with irony, on this wall.

More good news: No more insufferable 9/11 hand-painted clay squares tied to the chain-link like some maudlin kindergarten project gone bathetically wrong.

Bad news: MTA architects will decide what replaces this corner, which, like the rest of this asterisk-shaped intersection (former home to the stately Loews) & the length of (preserved) Greenwich Avenue, continues to be haunted by our greatest nostalgic New York painter.

New York Scrawl

Be the Change You Wish to See in the World

Approaching an Occupied Union Square
from the subway exit on 14th Street & Broadway, 6:45 p.m.

Occupied Union Square, 6:48 p.m.



As much media, & as many tourists & looky-lous as protestors, 6:50 p.m.



Misspelled, true, but the sentiment is there. 6:50 p.m.



& this is what a growing NYPD presence across the street
& within charging distance looks like...

We can only hope tonight everyone practices what this man preached.
