LOL--this is actually W Houston & Thompson Sts in the Village. An artist was selling these. In addition to other black historic figures further down the street (Obama, of course) there was an equally large portrait of Donald Trump. I tried to get a picture of it but it was overshadowed by trees and didn't work out so well. http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastvillagedon Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Street Brawl in Chinatown--I have no clue as to what was happening here. Two groups of women were facing off, and the guy in the fleece pullover and bluetooth headset was sort of acting as referee (or egging them on). Maybe it was the Fujianese vs the Hunanese (?) http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Orion Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 ^^^I thought that was Quebec City! Haha they say it's one of the most beautiful towns on the East Coast. They call it the "Switzerland of America." What I love about it is that it's considered to be in the Coal Region but it's also considered to be the gateway to the Poconos. It really does have an interesting coal-town-but-wait-it's-also-a-ski-town motif. But really, compared to the rest of towns in the coal region, it really doesn't look like a "coal town." Jim Thorpe made out pretty well. I was there two Sundays in a row during peak foliage. One of the most beautiful towns I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastvillagedon Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 lol-I thought I would never see these again. Ages ago, a couple of seasons after the Simpsons premiered someone came up with these Black Bart Simpson t-shirts. I remember one summer they were being sold everywhere on the street. Ultimately the manufacturer was shut down after being threatened with a lawsuit (the best of my recollection). They became quite the collectors item. I spotted these in a "vintage" clothing store window (didn't ask the price)-- http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJP Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. Broadway Avenue going uphill from the train station is awesome. I could definitely live there if the train service was more than a scenic, short joyride. If it went north to Scranton and south/east to Allentown, Philly and/or New York, then I'd be all in. And I wouldn't have to worry about the traffic on those awful two-lane roads. “What is the meaning of this city?

eastvillagedon Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 ^not as of yet. He's still trying, I think, although due to the support the carriages are getting he hasn't yet. Needless to say the animal rights activists are miffed. I think they might be phased out next year (I meant the carriages, not the animal rights activists, although we can only hope! lol). I'm sure there will be more protests. http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastvillagedon Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Are the carriages allowed on all city streets or just in Central Park? I don't know if they're allowed on all streets. I've only seen them on streets in the area of Central Park, maybe a five-block radius, certainly not confined to the park. If one should travel too far from the park, say 34th St, I would say that probably is abusive to a horse (to say nothing of the astronomical cost to the passenger). http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrnyc Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Are the carriages allowed on all city streets or just in Central Park? no and yes. no for customers. yes for the horses going home for the day. one of the coolest things about hanging out ion the westside of manhattan (in hells kitchen area) is to see the streetcart guys and the horse carriages coming and going to their garages and stables. and just like most other ny'ers, the horses live on upper floors in their stables! if yr a horse lover or have time you can go poke your nose in and have a look anytime. heres a blurb about that: The stables, located off of 11th Avenue at 52nd, 48th, 38th and 37th Streets, are located in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, and they were all orginally built as horse stables in the late 19th century. All of the stables house the horses on the second and third floors of the building, which are accessed by walking up ramps designed for this purpose.

mrnyc Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I heard the land that the stables are on is getting to be worth too much money to keep them there. yeah that and the mayor wants to ban the horserides alltogether are probably putting a lot of pressure on their continued existence. i know of one that has closed and redeveloped recently. btw there is another much larger horse stable for police horses nearby along the hudson river. edit - here is a sign i saw today in front of an irish tavern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
