things in the city of new york

I'm heading out to NYC this Thursday, what perfect timing for me to come across this thread (wasn't even looking, silly me)! Thanks everyone.
 
Soymilkshakes is on point! I checked out freedom tunnel and it was awesome, the light from the grates makes it dramatic as hell. Also went to ABC No Rio and they have a zine library with 10,000 zines, holy fucking shit.
 
hep c squat is pretty much a sad represtention of a time long past. I've been in there once.. Sturg asked some kids in tompkins park if anyone wanted to help clean up for a show and I volunteered so I could get in the show for free. I helped clean up.. never went back because the place was just too sketchy and really didn't like the thought of being there all night. this was back in about 2004.

The only cool place I used to know in NYC was the batcave squat in brooklyn. but I'm pretty sure it's been torn down.


HOWEVER - serenity squat had some cool, nice, upstanding people. when I was invited to visit it was kinda like visiting your crazy aunt. and it looked like they were really trying to make the place as livable as they could.
 
yeah batcave is done, and before it ended it got super junkieish and sketchy too as i understand it.

but yeah, c has some good people and i have friends there, buuuut....well I just don't know
 
yeah, i dont see what would be interesting about walking past an old blown up sold out squat.

punx creds for crack rock steady?
 
God damm, lol c squat this c squat that, lol mat said it best dust tweekers lol, dont get me wrong i love disasociatives, but dam if i had to hear sturges voice for more than 20 mins, id go on a tri squat killing spree.

lol c squat lol, ive had cooler squats with cooler kids in merengo (chi town burb) (pop 200) lol
 
I used to live in the batcave. Was your friend who lived there and was stabbed named Jason? Did he have a Mohawk? I lived there in late 2005-2006, the end ti
e... I was one of the forementioned junkies. Heh. I'll tell some stories when I have more time. It's riight though at the end it was just junkies and runaways and a few brave as he'll train hoppers. As for c squat the place is a joke. Been in there twice almost got my ass kicked both times.
 
Never had more fun than NYC and Tompkins. It's like grand central for kids from all over the place. Def 'bad habit' area and c-squat is like a high school popularity thing. Kinda sucks that that shit goes on, but, you know... it's life. Big up to Nico and SFH.
