Red Call Box, Red Post

Like many East Villagers, I ride my Citibike down the Second Avenue bike lane.

Through a combination of my average speed and the timing of the stoplights, I oftentimes find myself stopped at the corner of East 7th Street, which is where I saw a newly-painted call box (below). The painters must have had a bit of paint left over, because they painted the post beside it also!

Unfortunately, this occurred a month or so ago, when it was still dark at 5:30, so I couldn't get a decent picture of it.

Today, it looks like this:

Scribbled-on.

Last month, it looked a lot like this quick and dirty rendering:

Scribblers gonna scribble!
