The old power station near the corner of 3rd Street and 3rd Avenue has lost its message. As per the bottom photo above, last year the top of the building had been tagged “No More Corporate Bullshit! Fuk Wall St.” The building was one of the parcels in the area bought by developers for a would-be project called “Gowanus Village.” GMAP

  1. “Nomi, I haven’t run into you on other threads since the Bjork discussion but wanted to thank you for the last post to me in that debate, which I saw the next day. I enjoy your posts a lot and am glad there are no hard feelings”

    I think that was my longest internet “discussion” ever. Silly.

  2. I dont agree with the sentiment (since it is simple minded and frankly a bit naive) BUT I kinda liked it – and I object to them ONLY cleaning that message. If your going to clean the building – clean it all – no selective message erasing.

  3. DIBS — I won’t deny that frat boys are probably pretty proficient at the ol’ beast-with-two-backs… but they shouldn’t be in charge of the world’s money.

    That said… I’d still like to hear Ditmas’ response.

  4. “There’s been a big change in people’s attitudes…….Most of us have moved on.

    Not me. I lamented the irresponsible greed before the crash, hate those responsible now, and regard the perjorative connotation that the US as a whole applies to the words “liberal” and “socialism” as curse that will lead to ever increasing isolation from the rest of the civilized world. I’ll miss the graffiti.
