Candy Factory Shedded

Long-time a center of Manhattan’s pasted paper scene, the Candy Factory, is now covered with a construction shed.

I should get a shot of what the official construction notices say.

When the glass and steel invaded Wooster Street, I knew the Candy Factory was a goner.

Santas on 14th Street

gamma — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 06:23:26 +0000

The bottled air paster went full color for Xmas. This Santa is lucky and rich enough to be able to afford bottled air for his 14th street deliveries. I could use some myself. I’ve been knocked out with a bad chest cold for the past 10 days. Fever has finally broken, I hope, was 103F last night, down to a tolerable 100F now.

Dunno, looks like he’s about to cry. Xmas tree seller 14th Street and Second Avenue.

Retired Episcopal Bishop George Packard was the first one over the fence into Duarte Square. Video of the OWS breaching of the wall around the park, owned by Trinity Church. I interview two clergymen, Father Paul Mayer and Rev. Max Surjadinata. Views of the march and of a meditating hunger striker.

OWS Hunger Strike – Duarte Sq.

gamma — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 04:51:19 +0000

Update: they were arrested again. The excuse for the arrest this morning was that they were blocking the sidewalk. What tonight’s excuse is, I don’t know.

Three of the strikers were arrested this morning. They are back tonight joined by others.

Meditating underneath the statue of Juan Pablo Duarte.
