We’ll admit to not entirely “getting it,” but that doesn’t make the parking meter art project organized by the Montague Street BID this week any less fun. As the reported, “dozens” of volunteers spent Wednesday night sheathing 69 parking meters on the Brooklyn Heights commercial strip with yarn cozies; the official unveiling was during No Parking hours yesterday morning. (Check out the photo above and more at StreetsBlog.) The event took its cue from similar undertakings in Paris and Mexico City.
ENY – also you knowwww not to start with me 😉 yardie 😉
Oh sorry – I said Carribbean – wasn’t to offend
ever been?
It’s great there – the palm trees, the people, the gorgeous flowers and colorful buildings – those colors make sense in those places
but do I want to see the meters all dolled up in Tea cozies b/c some artist thinks it’s cute – gimme a break!

I think it’s kinda cute… Not that I would ever do it, but I’m sure these folks that knit don’t take time out of their lives to knit. They just knit these colorful strips when they’re watching TV, talking to friends, etc. It’s probably just sort of subconscious activity.
rob, you are getting bitter in your old age.
lighten up! it’s Friday!!! YAY!
I don’t think this is boring at all. Silly and lighthearted, yes. Will give people a bit of a boost or a laugh. Unless they are crabby and humorless.
