A few weeks back, before Tyson Beckford and his motorcycle gang took over the block, I was walking east on Bond toward Bowery...
..looking at the mix of old and new (mostly new) that we're used to seeing in recent years...
And what did I learn? That this was the "new intersection of cool."

The new intersection of annoying materialistic yuppies who think they are artists wearing vintage clothing but are really middle upper class people from suburban places around the country, and never grew up in the city.
Here, you'll find things that you may or may not be interested in about the East Village and other parts of New York City. Appreciating what's here while it's still here. Remembering what's no longer here. Wishing some things weren't here that are here.

If you have to call yourself cool, then you're not.

Soon it will be just as "cool" as the Meatpacking District.
