Today signifies my 3rd year nicotine free. Had quit cold turkey, and had been a two pack per day smoker at that. 6-months later, I quit drinking alcohol, also cold turkey. Greatest decisions. And it's all essentially mind over matter, quitting these vices. Though it too is a lifestyle change.

 

Thanks to my recent cataract surgeries, my eyesight 👀 is now 20/20 each eye and in August I shall turn 62. And life is good

This is 1 of 3 photos I'd taken in August 2022 of this large empty lot in Long Island City, Queens, NYC. I saved these photos for when something would eventually happen reference a major real estate deal. Welp, something considerable has indeed happened (see below)

 

Crain's New York Business, March 7, 2024

 

Midtown-based Fisher Bros. has parted ways with a Long Island City site where it once hoped to build a 240-unit project.

 

The real estate firm has sold 42-50 24th St. to developer Chris Xu's United Construction & Development for $57.5 million, property records show. The deal will add to Xu's already substantial portfolio of Queens projects.

 

The Hakim Organization and Property Markets Group bought the site in 2015 for $69 million, and the real estate website New York YIMBY published renderings of a 74-story tower planned for the address in 2018. However, in 2019 Fisher Bros. prefiled plans for a 35-story project at the site that would span about 255,000 square feet with 240 residential units, 40,000 square feet of commercial space and a hotel.

That building across the street from me goes one entire block so I need to see the entire picture. It was 2am when I first heard the sirens. One firehouse is just down the block, though I could hear sirens approaching from the distance as well. Maybe a 2-3 alarm.

My hunch paid off as these two structures were completely torn down. Several times I've been asked if I was an insurance surveyor, as I photograph buildings & construction. That one makes sense, as many times I'm dressed from work. No, just a hobbyist photographer. Essentially it's my documenting the pre/post gentrification of my neighborhood

Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.

If you have a NYC Transit reflective vest, you can seemingly park anywhere for free in all of NYC. Seems to also work for construction workers' vests/placards

 

Who's to say these people even work for NYC Transit, or in construction for that matter. Apparently it works, as I walk to/fro my place of employment every day and see this all the time
