Wednesday's parting shot

Photo today by Derek Berg 

On Second Avenue at Fifth Street this morning... from the naked eye and based on the trajectory, it appears the unseen rep for the private garbage hauler got the optimum angle of trash bag release between 41 and 43 degrees.

The duck stopped here

From this past week on Avenue B at 14th Street ... when a man stopped at a newsbox to feed his pet duck, who was wearing custom booties on its webbed feet. (Unsure if the carriage was for the duck.) 

Thanks to EVG reader Kris Divney for the photo!

Today in vibrating severed hands

An EVG reader shared this photo from outside the vacant lot — the site of the former 123 Second Ave. — between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place. 

Per the reader: "The hand is connected to some sort of wire so the hand is vibrating."

Saturday's parting shot

Living and working on Avenue A. 

And seeing this living arrangement reminded one reader of when Merlin lived in nearly the same spot for eight years.

Walk hard on Fourth Avenue and 12th Street today...

Saturday's opening shot

A (rare) quiet moment crossing First Avenue at 14th Street early this morning. 

More than an inch of rain is expected in the greater metropolitan (East Village) area today into this evening ... as, per the weather folks, we're getting the rain and wind from Tropical Rainstorm Ophelia. 

And happy fall.

EVG reader Joe shared this photo from last night on 13th Street, noting: "Interesting method to block off drying concrete ..."
