EAST VILLAGE~NYC~ CIRCA 1980


this is how i remember the east village~NYC~ back in 1984, the first time i ever traveled to NYC. back then everyone called it "beirut," because it looked like a war zone. apartments were cheap, but many times had no doors, no heat and human feces in the hallways.
i remember going on a date with a cutie that lived in "beirut." the next morning when i left his apartment and walked thru a trash riddled empty lot, with trash cans on fire, (homeless people would lite them to stay warm) i saw a rabbit head and paws sewn onto a cat hind legs and tail!!

boy those were the days....
