Beer-Drinking Orphan


One of the things I love is finding orphaned signs - signs for businesses that are long gone, but of which a small vestige remains.  This beer-swilling little fellow has the feel of an orphaned sign, but I don't remember him above the previous restaurant (he's above the Belcourt now, which was the Frutti di Mare before that).  Anyone know if he came with the Belcourt or if he's been there longer?

MTA Austerity Measures


What doesn't really show up in the photo is how dirty this train was, garbage everywhere, sticky floors, etc.  As part of the MTA's austerity measures, they have begun cutting back on cleaning the trains.
