I love the shots where you have the tower and nothing but the audio of birds singing. It almost doesn’t seem like NYC. (Quite the contrast with the noisy demolition that comes later.)

Peoples’ thoughts on the old East Village vs. what’s there now are very interesting (and important)…That said, it’s great that the garden is still there. And I’m glad that land will be used to grow more plants which is what this neighborhood/planet sorely need. By the way, they didn’t cut down the whole tree, did they?

This is a real capture of what was an East Village fixture for so long…and of the people who cared for it. Your editing is excellent.

Oh, and that last shot is sooo cool…
