Mitch,
Bernie at the NCA told me about your site, and I’m glad he did. Your post on the NCWWTP was nothing short of EPIC (not unlike the plant itself).
I thought you might appreciate my blog, Big Sky Brooklyn:

Pls. let me know what you think.

Hi Mitch,
I was researching the web about the English Kills channel and history of the area when I cam e across your website. I think it is great, and it is fun to find other people interested in the weird things I find fascinating.
Since you know so much about LIC and Greenpoint area I was wondering if you could give me some advice about an environment project I am planning on doing around Bushwick. I couldn’t find your e-mail but I would love if you could contact me.
Thank you for showing these inspiring pictures!

Mitch,
I stumbled upon your site and I really dig what you are doing. More individuals need to traverse America’s neighborhoods in search of obscure facts and visual impressions. You are inspiring. Keep it up!

Mitch,
You just keep getting BETTER! Inexhaustable, irrepressible, etc. . . . We should do a “DrunkWalk” sometime: A visionary trawl (send me your e-mail and I’ll send you some ideas, though I’m sure you have a lot of your own).

Hey Mitch,
You may remember me from SVA/Treaty Stone, etc. I stumbled upon this site while looking for pictures of neat stuff from my neighborhood (I’ve lived in LIC for a long time now). Small world! Very glad to see you’re still in it. Oh and great blog too!
