Subtle changes at the Mystery Lot, kind of; plus, another Ode!

Since The Real Deal reported last week that a developer had purchased the Mystery Lot, we've been getting card, letters and questions about the Mystery Lot.

For instance: Have you noticed any changes at the Lot?

Why yes. There's is a newish lock and chain on one of the gates...


...and the fence along the 13th Street side now has these supporty things ...



Moving forward, we will be camped out at the three units here at the back of 123 Third Ave. with balconies overlooking the site...



Hope that the residents don't mind.

And now, another reader submitted Ode to the Mystery Lot poem, or something. Via Cheeks:

To the tune of Like A Prayer, by Madonna...

The Lot is a mystery
The Monster must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home


Meanwhile, the other day, Off the Grid had a post about a public hanging here back in 1824.
