Queenscape of the week

Brownstoner Queens featured this photo above a bunch of links yesterday.
This is such a perfect photo to represent what's become of this borough, don't you think? A street tree being destroyed in front of a wide load of crap.

They are barracks for the worker bees.

Absolutely love the roll down corrugated gates! They will be graffitied in no tine.

One can only suspect that the developer/owner killed the tree by putting rock salt at the base.

This behavior has been witnessed in North Flooshing! Free city tree removal - you just have to kill the tree first!!!

Queens pols don't give a shit about anything! Except Tony Avella - he's too good for this shitty Third World borough!

Are those fences inside the property line? They look like they extend over the city sidewalk.

The whole look is "institutional" not "neighborhood".

Full of Democratic voters and people who need Democratic programs and tenants to pay outrageous rents to Democratic campaign donor property investors.

I see nothing wrong with this picture.

What a dump that corner is. Between the hideous building and now a tree stump. No greenery just cement, how nice.
