Seen & Heard: Barge Inside

••• An update on Bogardus Plaza work from Tory Weil of Friends of Bogardus Garden: “We are losing the stripes on the road surface.” (This is a change from a few days ago.) “Although the design was unique and definitely made the plaza stand out, we realized that we didn’t have the time or funds in the budget to devote to its maintenance. Since we first painted two years ago, we’ve had to re-paint three additional times. Too much! So the road surface will be a stone colored epoxy gravel similar to other plazas. That is slated to be put down this Friday.” I also asked about the plans for a clocktower at the southern tip, and she said they’re still pursuing it. Maybe they should do a Kickstarter drive!

••• The vendors for Saturday’s first-of-the-season Fulton Stall Market: Urban Rose, Mami Tere, Art by Naima Ruam Pizzevia, NY Farm 2 Door, Teaves Tea, Maupston Designs, Mighty Balls, The Poffertjes Man, Lorna’s Naturals, Maimi Sunii, Bugget Out and Bambino’s Ravioli.

••• I came across something club-like called L4 Black Door on Twitter; its website says “our humble little space is place for creativity, experimentation and serves as an artist in residence incubator or nurture joint” and that it’s at 41 Murray. That’s Eamonn’s, where downstairs is (was?) another club-like thing called Cin-M-Art Space. Or maybe the two entities are just nights at a rentable space? All of which is neither here nor there, except that while Googling I also came across this notice that Eamonn’s is for sale.

••• From the Waterfront Museum, currently docked at pier 25: “Free Barge Open Hours Thursday 4–8 p.m. and Sunday 1–5 p.m. And on Saturday at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., there’s a performance by Billy Bones—The Good Pirate.”
