The old coffee shop is gone, but only replaced by signs for rent.
There is a building that my train goes by everyday. I want to remember it as the building it was before. The painted 5 Pointz. But I also want to remember the building as it is now, a skeleton of a structure, with golden orbs in every empty room.
There are lots of buildings like this. Empty, and half empty for long periods of time. Even when they are close to finished, they are never quite finished. I can't imagine who will live there.
I only hope that these buildings will all fail to attract the expensive people, and will have a place for those who can't afford anything, and will be open to them as homes.
I keep my eyes and camera ready to track the progress, or to remember what it was like before these buildings got to where they are going.
