There's NO Parking on Sidewalks

___

It's so out of control. And some are placing their neon construction vests on the dashboard as proof they can just randomly do as they please, and are seemingly getting away with it. These vehicles are never towed.

What if a disabled person needed to get past?

Or a citizen in a wheelchair for that matter?

That's a lot land for present day Astoria. Now, I can totally envision someone buying out the funeral home and adjacent empty lot and putting up yet another luxury rental. We shall see

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."

~` Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803 – April 27, 1882), who went by his middle name Waldo, was an American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, minister, abolitionist, and poet who led the Transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was seen as a champion of individualism and critical thinking, as well as a prescient critic of the countervailing pressures of society and conformity. Friedrich Nietzsche thought he was "the most gifted of the Americans," and Walt Whitman called Emerson his "master".

Many times along my walks I happen upon discarded items/litter thrown down upon the street, and often I will stop and look at them. Sometimes even photograph them, that is, if I feel there's a story there. There's definitely a story here..

I'm not certain what this building is about, though the bottom half looks to be manufacturing, with the upper black section resembling a fashion-incubator, from what I've observed on the rare occasion when I've taken the train.

And here we go. For years now this structure had been left to the elements and has been slowly breaking down, though today I walked past and it looks like something's gonna happen.

No more free parking back there. Ha ha
