Atlantic Avenue Brooklyn, NY - World’s Oldest Subway Tunnel

Hey, looks like you're new here. You may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

The Brooklyn Historic Railway Association is giving another tour of the Atlantic Avenue Tunnel on August 10th.

I went on the July 27th tour and it was quite an experience. I arrived early for the 1:30pm meeting time and saw a few people milling about at the meeting point. I thought I was in on something unique, but within a half hour the place was packed with people.

Atlantic Ave. Subway Tunnel Tour

The organizers came around with waivers for us to sign and collected our $15 (exact change). They seemed a bit unorganized and we didn’t begin going into the tunnel until about 2:15pm. Arriving early meant more time in the tunnel, but being late didn’t seem to be a problem.

Abandonded Warehouse in Montreal Canada 2005

When I was working on the Graffiti Collection I took a bunch of pictures inside of an abandoned warehouse I found in Montreal. I walked around inside for over an hour snapping pictures of the damage and graffiti. You can see all of the pictures over at flickr.

Unboxing: House Industries Ampersand T-Shirt

I recently received my House Industries Ampersand T-shirt. They packaged the T-shirt in a cool box, included 4 stickers, and several brochures for their new font set. One of my favorite things about getting orders from House is the smell. The ink off of those brochures is hypnotic. It is like a giant scratch and sniff sticker.

I thought the Tee was going to be a gun metal blue, but it is jet black. That bit about hot designer chicks accosting you on the street is absolutely true.

Save This Cat Before…


Cat Face

I thought this was the coolest illusion. It was on some sort of machine at a winery. Do you see the cat’s face being squished between the gears?

Today I Discovered…

crowded street.jpg

Today the subway was running on alternate tracks due to construction, so I had to take the train to a stop that was a bit far from where I wanted to go. Despite the fact that it was cold outside I was looking forward to the walk. I got off the train and realized that I was smack in the middle of Chinatown, some of the most congested sidewalks in NYC. So I decided to walk as fast as I possible could through the crowded sidewalks. It was really fun! Cutting in and out of people, jumping over fire hydrants, and sliding sideways through tight spots without touching anyone. I felt like a social pro. Today I discovered I actually enjoy extreme urban walking.
