Fox Fodder decorates the Laight Street bridge for the holidays

December 18, 2025 Services, Shopping

What a treat! Fox Fodder Flowers, the floral design studio that moved from Williamsburg to Vestry in June, decorated the Laight Street pedestrian bridge for the holidays on Friday. They dubbed it the “Kissing Bridge” for the cluster of mistletoe hung from the girders and added the roping down the sides. “Happy smooching,” their IG post read.

(Thanks to K. for the heads-up and E. for that gorgeous shot.)

This has to be one of my favorite holiday touches in the neighborhood. (Stay tuned for a new holiday stroll posted on Christmas Day.) I love that it’s hidden to all save those who make the effort to go up and over the Holland Tunnel traffic.

I will do a real new kid post soon, but in the meantime, the space on Vestry is their office and studio, not a retail shop. But you can still order! Find them here.

    Kissing bridges were found in several NYC locations in centuries past. One famous bridge was at Second Avenue near 50th Street; another at 77th and Third Avenue. And, a well-known bridge was at the intersection of Park Row and the now de-mapped Roosevelt Street right here in Tribeca.

    Thomas Janvier referred to some of these locales in a section of his book, “In Old New York.” See Love Lane – Collection at Bartleby.com” (https://www.bartleby.com/lit-hub/love-lane/).

    Look up the topic of kissing bridges and you will find an unexpected glimpse of the city that seemed lost forever, especially in today’s surveillance-obsessed society.

    Welcome back to the neighborhood, Kissing Bridge!
