Urban blight, urban urging, urban gardening

Came across this unfortunate scene on Grand Avenue, Brooklyn.

What's behind the fence - lotsa trash that I swear was 'moving' as in possibly rodents running throughout. A rat runs through it!

What's also behind the fence - an overgrown lot below street level.

And from this point of view, I'd say the whole thing is going to fall over any day now.

And in the next block of Grand, some encouragement to take part in the democratic process.


Right in front of Tom's Restaurant, favorite pancake hangout of cops and hipsters, a tiny tomato patch.
