Street Couch Series: Bruce Ratner Edition


[Photo courtesy of threecee/flickr]

These could be our favorite street couches ever. We've seen better ones, of course, but the placement on these--on Atlantic Avenue near S. Oxford in the Atlantic Yards footprint--is perfect. So perfect, in fact, that we got two photos of it within 12 hours of each other. The photo on top comes from Tracy Collins, the resident and photographer who is compiling an amazing photographic record of the neighborhood and work at the site. The bottom one comes from our very own wide-ranging Greenpoint correspondent. Perhaps what one might call the Bruce Ratner Twins were left there in celebration of the eminent domain decision on Friday.

it's also interesting in that it seems that the couches haven't been touched in the 12 hours between photos. even the cushions remain in the places.
