Water St Between Jay St and Bridge St

    

Feeling utterly forgotten, there's a ton of character on this block but it's mostly embodied by the avalanche of street art plastered on the walls. While it seems at least one building has been undergoing redevelopment, it remains vacant and the adjacent construction site was none-too-promising either. All the other buildings were in various states of disrepair, but they all seemed to at least be occupied to differing degrees.

The patchwork cobblestones which comprise the street made for a very bumpy ride for the handful of cars I watched drive down it. The sidewalk, too, was a bit of a minefield, requiring you to maneuver around construction canopies and potholes. And while there is nothing this street can offer the casual pedestrian in terms of a commercial presence, the dilapidated nature was more than enough to amuse me.

I need to find out which street artist is responsible for that sad face in the first photo!
