Eye-Pleasing Accent Plants


The right type of plants can add so much to a downtown's ambiance. For example, check out these Plattsburgh smart examples that emphasize the supernalness of its main street.







Street Trash Installation


The mess shown in the accompanying images has been lying around for a week on a Broad Street sidewalk. Why? Is it to add the supernality of downtown Plattsburgh, NY?












Maybe the answer can be found with this definition courtesy of Wikipedia:

"Installation art describes an artistic genre of three-dimensional works that are often site-specific and designed to transform the perception of a space."

Indeed, the busted bottle shards in tandem with the litterbuggery Styrofoam cup does transform my perception of that sidewalk space.

Evening Walk, Ethereal Encounter


A pleasant evening to stretch the legs. But you always have to watch your step downtown.

Remember: Cleanliness is next to Godliness. That's why I call it Supernal Downtown Plattsburgh.

Slip-Sliding Away In Plattsburgh


So if you're going to break your leg, which one do you prefer?






A Gift For City Hall


And what makes a better gift than something that creates disgust and disease?




Signs Of Conflict




With both signs one would think that the lawn to the Westelcom Stage Park between Margaret and Durkee streets would be clean. Keep your dog out. If your canine craps on the lawn you must pick up after it with one of the supplied waste bags. But it seems the messages cancel each other out. Why else would this be still be found there?



Putting up diametrically opposed instructions is what I called Plattsburgh stupid. Especially when both of them fail to stop the problem.
