Looking at the "new intersection of cool"

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."

  1. 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.

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

    Devo: "We're through being cool."

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