A week in the life of the Cooktop Sidewalk Garden on St. Mark's Place

It was, of course, the story the captivated the city this past week. It started after someone discarded cooktops on the sidewalk along St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue. Then that one guy you always see on St. Mark's Place put them to good use.

The rest is, of course, Cooktop Sidewalk Garden history.

Monday!



Tuesday!



Wednesday!





Thursday!





Friday!



Today! [sob]



It was also a week in which we learned that not many people know, exactly, what a cooktop is.



So. Worst sidewalk garden branding ever then?

    :( RIP Cooktop Garden, Mystery Lot ET, and the poor souls of the former Cabrini Center.

    Where have all the flowers gone, long time passing?

    Young girls have picked them everyone.
    Oh, when will they ever learn?
