So, let's bring some closure to this Shrek Saga... Yesterday began with so much hope and promise... a cardboard Shrek was for sale along Avenue A...
...and, perhaps, this empty space meant that the Shrek had found a home...
This would not be the case, though. As this photo by EV Grieve reader Jeanne shows, Shrek was thoughtlessly thrown into the trash by an unknown Shrek tosser....

Looking at the weekend box-office report...
Meanwhile, the SATC2 sign vandalism continued around the neighborhood....

Sex and the City 2 notched an estimated $32.1 million on approximately 6,100 screens at 3,445 locations, bringing its total to $46.3 million since its Thursday debut. That's a huge step backwards from the first Sex and the City, which bagged $57 million on its first weekend. Distributor Warner Bros.' exit polling indicated that a whopping 90 percent of Sex 2's audience was female, and 54 percent was under 35 years old. By comparison, the first Sex's opening weekend audience was 83 percent female.

New Cooper Square Hotel fence tagged
On Wednesday, workers finished putting in the Popsicle fence at the Cooper Square Hotel... a tempting canvas for street artists... and sure enough, in what will be the first of many, I imagine... someone tagged the fence last night... and thanks to EV Grieve reader Ryan for snapping this shot early this morning of the Cooper Square Hotel Anti-Graffiti Team going into action...
I took this shot a little later...
...and just up the way at the new Cooper Union academic building...
Anyway, why did the Coop Hotel clean the tag? I thought they wanted to "fit in with the edgy local art scene?"

You can say this about ConEd: They don't skimp on the barricades
Reminders today: The Loisaida Festival on Avenue C
