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.
I don’t think the cozies are meant to be permanent, it is just a fun temporary art project. You old foggies should lighten up. Its just colorful yarn on parking meters.
I love them and appreciate the skill that went into making them!
“plus they might work in the Caribbean”
Why would they work in the Caribbean?
These people have a lot of time to burn.
No need DIBS. I’ve been enjoying Brownstoner without reading the comments. It’s been a small but real improvement in my life. I only checked here, because everyone loves Knitta Please, right? Right? Oh, nope. Of course, of course. (Caribbean? Oy)
Back to reading the stories only for me. Try it DIBS. You may like it.
Ringo…welcome back.
ugh. I hate to even comment anymore, but I have to support Knitta!
I love Knitta Please! I LOVE them. I love turning the idea of “tagging” upside down, thru knit.
People…. ah, people. What can I say, except I just don’t know when the world got so cynical. I’ll point out that it’s highly unlikely they’ll last 6 months and then be a mess since it’s a temporary installation that will come down in a month. As usual, people talking without one ounce of knowledge.
Not.a.good.idea.
plus they might work in the Caribbean but not on Montague Street
They’ll last 6 months and then be an unravelled mess.
