A Monday placeholder…

A day late and a dollar short best describes one today, and a single image is offered in the name of whetting your appetite.

This past summer, your humble narrator gained access to a certain spot on the Newtown Creek which has long been forbidden- the 400 Kingsland Avenue property of the Exxon Mobil corporation, former home of the Standard Oil Company of New York’s Locust Hill Refinery.

For the whats and whys, tune in tomorrow at this, your Newtown Pentacle.
