To Brooklyn, progress, and back: A short photo essay
On the J-Train
Arriving at Gates Avenue
One of 4.5 bathrooms (yes, I know! It doesn't have a soap dish yet. But one has to get exactly the Correct Soap Dish! This bathroom is a beautiful grey and white, although it doesn't look like it here. It also is a fairly large bathroom--I guess I have to spring for a wide-angle lens like all those other people!
Oh yes. Indoor plumbing! What a gift, even without soap dishes and towel
racks!
Mission for the day (should you choose to accept it):
1. Enter into a bathroom; one with tub or shower. Avoid gas stations, for
example.
2. Revel in the beauty and convenience of Tile! Think what a mess the
average shower might make without it.
3. Check out the very simplicityof a water repellent floor! Nothing
fancy, just tile, tile, showers, water, toilets with double flush, maybe a
mirror!!!! A mirror. What an amazing thing.
No place is more beautiful at night than the view from the Williamsburg Bridge.
