I frequently drive past this parking lot at Kent and Broadway in Williamsburg. Whenever I pass, I notice the psychedelic bus parked there…
…and I wonder: what’s the story with the pit bull sitting in the second to last seat?
He’s always there, staring morosely out the window at passing cars. I’d say he’s a guard dog, except there’s really nothing to guard in this parking lot.
Well, except the psychedelic bus.

PS – He is alive! I saw him move once.
Well, there’s certainly no hill…
I’ve been scouting swimming pools at country clubs in the New York area recently, and I’m pretty amazed at how graphic the Pool Rules signs can be. Like this one, spotted at a country club with a $30K initiation fee and $30k/year membership dues: “Discharge of fecal matter” – are you kidding me?? I know…
The other day, I was scouting a midtown office space with some pretty great views. As I was taking pictures, I noticed something a few blocks north… What the hell was this crazy apartment??
A year ago, I heard that plans were in the works to remake Rosemary’s Baby, and my reaction was exactly what you’re thinking now: NO. The film is a masterpiece, and to remake it would be nothing short of cinematic blasphemy. In the days that followed, however, I found myself mulling over the central question:…
I challenge you to find worse: My favorite: Put in all the cutesy fonts you want, this still feels like the least wholesome ice cream parlor on the planet. -SCOUT
One of my favorite buildings in Brooklyn can be found at 320 Washington Ave in the Clinton Hill area. Set back a bit from the main street, with a wrap-around driveway and surrounded by lush green trees, it’s in pristine condition for its 160+ years. Every time I drive by, I’ve wondered what its purpose…

Hmmmm. Perhaps, it’s the ghost of a dog that used to ride the psychedelic bus with hippies?
Is he definitely alive? Because he looks a lot like that RCA Victor “His Master’s Voice” dog!
He looks like a cardboard cutout!
Hell of big dog house eh?!
He’s the Heir of the Dog that bit the 60’s generation…
I walk up Kent Ave all the time, never noticed the dog though.
I did notice that they moved the bus to the other side of the parking lot though!
Here’s one of my shots: http://www.flickr.com/photos/aonghais/3472669572/
Was walking up Kent this morning, and noticed that not only had the bus been moved, it had disappeared!!! As I continued on my walk I saw it parked across from the big lumberyard on West St not too far from the old Greenpoint Terminal Market…
And that dog barking away!!!

I just saw this bus on Wythe Avenue, behind Automotive High School (so quite a bit north from where it used to be) And the dog was in the bus! He’s definitely alive although I can’t say I’m psyched about his living situation.
The bus runs off vegetable oil and it’ll be coming along with us as we skate across the country. The dogs are cool and loving the attention.
