As of this morning, the three recycled plastic ledges at Seward Park are gone.
Though you have likely been witness to plenty of debates between skater and filmer about not wanting to film here and how it is not “interesting” enough, when looked at against the short supply of low bust, sequential ledges with ends in lower Manhattan, having this as a fail safe will be missed. It was nice having a street spot to warm up at or wind down around the corner from Labor, where non-skating passerbys and acquaintences can tempt you with extracurricular offers through the chainlink fence.
No clue what’s going here instead. A guess? Probably nothing.
