Man, I walked by there today and was marveling over it. I cannot believe it. It’s as if some alien monster is slowly chewing up the Lower East Side.
My alternate title was: The Earthmen have Landed and are Terraforming the Lower East Side. But that was a little long for a title.
Who cares if it’s long?! That’s a primo title. There really is an alien-like aspect to all of this…A takeover by pod people…
needs a starbucks. and a quizno’s. and don’t forget the CVS.
No fabric stores, C?
who needs a unique neighborhood when you have all the same stuff you get at a strip mall??? lol.

there have been lots of changes on orchard street this past year, and there will be a lot more changes to come soon.

I’m glad you are doing that. I’ve thought of doing it myself, but inertia, y’know. It’s a law of physics.
hey gammablog, have you seen this movie?

i haven’t seen it, but the trailer makes it sounds intriguing.
I’ve not seen it either. Clayton Paterson has been documenting the neighborhood for a long time, he must have enough interesting footage to make a good video.
