I was in Brooklyn last night and every time I go there I feel strange sense of relief. It's more "sketchy" as in things are dirty and there are empty lots in some places and sometimes things are run down but there are independent shops and cute houses and I feel more at home. In Manhattan, everything is so decided. Sometimes it feels like every square inch is already designated and done forever and nothing can change. Those inches are interesting inches with lots going on in them. But there is no room. There is no spontaneity of space.

ReplyDeleteWell we've got okay weather down here, but there's no culture. It's like eating white bread and calling it life.
