A 2nd Avenue sidewalk now and then
Last Monday, we noted the above fresh patch of sidewalk on Second Avenue between Fifth Street and Sixth Street ... in which a lot of people decided to adorn with their initials.
Now!
Over the weekend, Carol from East 5th Street told us that workers redid this section of sidewalk outside 100 Second Ave. ... there was even a guard on duty all day Saturday to keep the cement taggers away until things were dry...
There seems to be many sidewalk patches along First ave right now. And the same thing, many roped off to avoid this issue. Does the city has something to do with all these sidewalk fill ins?
100 Second Avenue is the sight of a proposed new venue - Paradise Lost (or is it Paradise Found) and I'm fairly sure the venue folks own the building and building owners are responsible for repairing the sidewalk in front of their building. Clearly they don't understand the EV culture. The tagged original sidewalk would have been a unique feature.

As the Ig would say, NO FUN.

Sorry, but that was fucking funny.
