🌉
I’ll admit it, it’s not the prettiest bridge but it’s the best bridge goddammit. Without it I don’t think I could have made it through the past 20 years bouncing back and forth between my two most beloved zones in NYC. Though, I wish I could’ve been up there in 61’ to see Sonny Rollin’s blowing to the cosmos after he got clean.

Yes it's a tourist trap and that's exactly the point. I will almost always hoof it on over the bridge if there's time. You'll hear like six different languages during peak hours and be surrounded by people who are so stoked to be alive and in the moment. You'll see people Facetiming lovers, family, etc... you'll see people hugging, kissing, laughing, taking pictures, etc. Some dude carries a huge python on the bridge sometimes. One time I saw a couple bring a foldout dining set, candles and all... And the view!? It's so beautiful. Even better now that they are no longer pitting bikers and pedestrians up against each other.
Take the bridge!!!

For so long no one was going anywhere and now that everyone is going everywhere it’s fun to see where they are and who’s around. I think we should all share our locations with each other. If you’re reading this right now please share your location with me.

I’m constantly surprised that people still wear un-zipped hoodies, myself included. Why not opt for the version that you can take on and off with such ease?

If your energy is up and you’re in the right mental space you could easily come home with 100 plus pounds of amazing shit at a penny on the dime. People there are fucking nuts so be prepared.
