Tall Bench

Even though I can see this from one of my apartment windows, I first saw it on The Gothamist site. What I immediately wondered was how they attached it to the sidewalk. The answer is, very poorly, with a couple of bolts into the concrete. I could easily have pulled it over.

It’s like something the Skewville bros would do, but my guess is that it is someone else.

    Dang! I missed this, even though it was so close by. I hear it’s been removed. Fine capture.
