"They tore it down. They tore it down. They tore it down."


Indeed. That's what a man remarked (over and over) this morning as he walked by the rubble that used to be the Tower of Toys in the community garden at 6th Street and Avenue B.

As you can see, there's not much left.





Wishful thinking.



The dumpster is full.



At least someone looks to be saving some of the toys from Eddie's creation.




Meanwhile, one-plus block to the east, as icons fall...
