'Vanishing' point


[Photo from July 19]

"Vanishing New York: How a Great City Lost Its Soul," the book by East Village-based writer-blogger Jeremiah Moss, was published this past week.

You can read an exclusive excerpt of the East Village chapter at Longreads.

He was also on the cover of The Village Voice last week (July 18 issue date). You can read that here.

The official book launch party was the past Thursday. There are several more upcoming events, as well as an appearance on the Leonard Lopate Show on WNYC Thursday at noon. Find those details here.

    Long read excerpts are on Wordpress and Vice. Incredible, depressing and meticulously detailed.

    That picture says it all about the regard and respect for journalism today.

    Maybe we can lose those disgusting trashmakers/eyesores of gazette dispensing containers that are mostly empty, unless there is trash in them, or laying on their sides in the streets and on the sidewalks spewing their paper everywhere.
