New York

I can't think about the destruction of the constitution any longer, so instead I'll post some photos from my trip to NYC earlier this week.

This, of course, is one of the famous lions in front of the NY Public Library.



And here's the chaos on 5th Avenue that he stands sentinal over each day.



The construction across the street is an apartment building that is being renovated. It's a disturbing trend in NY recently- a developer comes in a buys the property, kicks out the current tenants, renovates and resells to rich folk. Voilá, profit!! The apartments start a $1 million.

There are dozens of these projects going on in Manhattan right now. The rich get richer.... and you know the rest.

Oh, god, I fucking miss NY~!! And look, Maxx came with you in, um, spirit! At least the lions do look awfully like the Lion Kitty. Great photos, as usual.
