New PATH Trains Roll Through WTC
#1

Hey all,

I posted a few shows of a new PATH line as it rolled through the WTC station the other night and thought you might dig a gander:

Both new ones are sadly gone but the original remains steadfast. Apparently they were more of an eyesore than all of the ugly, plastic, green boxes stuffed with real estate brochures and adorned with graffiti. My bad.

Or, as my mom put it in a comment to the post: "i think someone decided to steal the bird feeder for their own little birdies!!!!!!!!!!"

Keep your eyes peeled for more anger or glee-inducing pieces in your open world.

Thanks Chocolate Cake! Seems someone wasn't thrilled by the one on Grove as it's already gone. Oh well, we went into hanging them in more high traffic areas with the expectation that we may have a casualty or two.

I actually stopped by the one at the corner of Jersey and Newark after work to grab a few pictures and, fueled by some of the reactions here asked a random assortment of people what they thought about the feeder and every single one were into it. Not sure if that was because I was putting them on the spot but I'll take it as a positive response, nevertheless.

Very well said. I'm all for places like this that not only bring people with a common interest together but put them into a setting where they are naturally inclined to talk with one another.

Since moving into my own place and living alone for the first time, I am beginning to really appreciate meeting new people in the community. Maybe it's different for other but I'm not one to casually start talking with someone in line at the store or even at a normal coffee shop.

I think people that go to standard shops generally do so to read, write or bury themselves into their computers. All fine and good as I enjoy doing the same but it's really cool to have something like this that puts people in a position to naturally engage one another.

The first one went up as a test a couple weeks ago on Newark and Brunswick to see how it would handle. It hasn't fallen or looked any worse for the wear at all so I'm not so concerned about that one. The type of rope I chose is really rough so the knots aren't going to come undone naturally

Also, none of them are over where cars would park or benches or anything. If someone decides to stand under one that has a pigeon in it, they may just want to be pooped on. They are definitely not so high up as to be mistaken. Of course, I wish no pigeon poopage on anyone!

In an effort promote our JC website (Draw & Quarter) in a unique way, my friend and I built and painted a few bird feeders and put them around the downtown area. Anybody seen them? If so, what do you think of the idea? We were hoping to add something fun to the Jersey City landscape that also served a purpose.

They need to build the damn thing already so I can pretend I am staying there and use their public bathrooms.

My friend Pete and I, both Downtown JC residents, have started a blog called Draw & Quarter (drawandquarter.com.) We've been posting a bunch of JC-centric stuff lately so I thought you'd dig checking it out. More to come.
