^yes. The only danger at this location is being run over by a motorist from Maryland.
Faison's writeups make me crazy. And not in a good "I'm crazy for buying this house!" way.
The Dancing Crab's commercials have to be the worst I've ever seen. The owners saying,...
God you people are boring. Why not more chatter about their footwears?
Cheesy and cheap. Something you'd expect the Montgomery, Al. Convention's Bureau to run...
Certainly looks more wholesome than the Caribbean Fest on Georgia.
but traffic and parking…what a pain.
are you serious? why would you drive to this? and if it’s your neighborhood, why would you drive that day?
Trash everywhere. People pissing in the streets. Thank goodness I don’t live in this neighborhood.
All swept and power washed away this morning. Bright and sparkley clean.
The parade was a blast. The costumes were out of this world and the little kids could not have been more adorable.
And weather was not as bad as last year for dancers with heavy costumes! (or for dancers with almost no costume
)
Not exactly. They didn’t put out a single trash can during the festival so there was grime from all manner of food, drink and bodily food all over the street last night. A street cleaner truck made several passes last night but this morning there was still a lot of trash and the smell was putrid.
bodily food! man that’s a terrible mental image.
I saw several men emptying trashcans along Irving & Park Rd around 3pm, so that’s just not true.
There was a weird smell on MtP Street this morning, but nothing worse than usual after a humid day.
I thought they cleaned up much better than in previous years! Mt P St has become a dump lately. Anyone know if you can get trashbags & other supplies from the city if you organize a cleanup? Or does someone need to sponsor our main street?
Yes, you can.
Agreed. Thank goodness you don’t live in this neighborhood.
Drove back from Philly last night and the Eagles’ post-tailgate parking lot looked better than Mt. Pleasant Street.
i guess some people always find the downside of a really fun day.
it was a really fun parade with lots of great people.
(oh, also on the plus side … no shooting).
I see that we captured some of the same subjects in our photos
Pablo,
that is true. maybe next time we should split up and each cover a different part
nice shots!
yet
no shootings yet? …how is that even possible when the festival is already over with?
i attended with a friend and it was honestly one of the more family-friendly festivals i’ve attended. lots of families from grandmothers to toddlers. a great parade, delicious food, and good music.
I guess some people are just trolls no matter what.
3rd photo – Lionel Messi showed up. Wow!
I live in the neighborhood and had to drive to work that day, which was a nightmare. If the event had been better published I could have made different plans. In any case I obviously didn’t have the opportunity to enjoy the fun but when I made it home the streets were PLASTERED with trash. It looked a lot better the next day but as of sept 30th I think it still stinks a bit despite the rain we have had.
