Scaffolding Outside Schapiro

By Bwog Staff on Oct 18, 2010 8 Comments

Aw shucks, there’s new scaffolding between Broadway and Riverside. But Bwog’s feeling good today. Sure, scaffolding is unattractive, but if it were painted orange and had cascading sheets, we could have a world famous art installation right here in Morningside.
