Cooped up


[Photo by Dave on 7th]

We've been meaning to note that the statue of Peter Cooper in Cooper Square was boarded up this past week for the Astor Place reconstruction project … So, noted!

BoweryBoogie noted this today as well … and BB also has a shot of the statue circa 1900.

    Maybe one or more of the artists they attends that school can throw some art on that box?

    It's like the old Price Albertjoke -

    "Do you have Peter Cooper in a Box?"

    "Yes, we do"

    "Then you ought to let him out before he suffocates!"
