Nah... I live in Brooklyn.. I was supposed to get off on Jay Street to take the F but I passed out and wound up deep in East NY. :(


What stop?
 
Ugh,people and their attempts to make threads about NY.:rolleyes:
 
Going body dumping Ronnie? If so, East River is the way to go, not a backlot or alley. A week in the East River and the body will be nothing but a memory.
 
Ok, a friend of mine lives in the Bronx. It's not a bad area persay, where he is, but on the news they had found a briefcase with an arm and a leg in it only a block away. That's NYC for ya.
 
A briefcase I think. I don't know. Or maybe just a travel suitcase.
 
Wow, a breifcase? Usually severed limbs are left in dufflebags or paper sacks or grabage bags. Over the last year, the discovery of severed limbs just doesn't seem that rare anymore.
 
I'm telling you, this was either a suitcase or a briefcase. It was square, whatever it is. Probably a suitcase, unless it was a very big briefcase. I don't remember and don't know if the one who told me about it remembers exactly either.
 
Hmm... suitcase sounds more plausable. You can fit a good set of legs or arms and torso in a suitcase (how the hell do I know this ****? Gotta stop watching horror films). It's unfortunate that there has been so many dismembered limbs in the city as of late.

It is almost on an average of every 3 months a new set of limbs or dismembered body has been found somewhere in NYC. Almost gets disturbing.
 
Nah, mobs have mass graves in vacant lots that get accidentally dug up in Queens (boy, was the disturbing to see on the news that one day).

These seem to be other types of crimes, none of them seem related at all, either.

Don't let this prevent anyone from visiting NYC. We're still a beautiful area. We have some great traffic jams.
 
JUst stay out of dark alleys.Especially in the Bronx.There always seems to be something happening there.

I need a place to shoot my project.
 
I don't know about large empty lots or back alleys, but Long Island City has an abundance of industrial factories as well as plenty of abandoned railroad tracks which are used for garbage dump sights.

I've used those railroad tracks for plenty of photographs years ago, leading to some very interesting compositions.

It's not a vacant lot, but it could be something you can use.

Are you willing to give any details about your project? Inquiring minds'd like to know.
 
They said it would be cold but it's was like a warm spring day today.
 
Riots in the streets of Brooklyn. Jews are getting uppitty.

Sounds interesting. The project is really just a film excersize. Trying to scout for locations and can't find anything appetizing.
 
Then I definately suggest Long Island City here in Queens. It was a lot of fun, and heavily industrial (although I like the ambiance given by industrial areas in photographs).

Hey, you spoke to boyscouT on occassion, you have and idea why he was banned (why he requested to be so)?
 
An industrial setting could definitely be beneficial to my shoot.

Anyway, about boyscouT - i'm really not sure why he requested to be banned. He was following in my footsteps? Dunno. He'll be back. They always come back.
 
Well, enjoy your shoot. Just gotta say, if you use the railroad tracks, be wary of security cameras and cops. Technically, you're not supposed to be there. But the end product is worth it.
 
No worries, as long as it's not in a red zone, I can get a permit for most any area in NYC.
