We'll never know. Maybe some were there earlier and were removed, or more came later. Or maybe it's just time for the memorials to start fading away.... :(
So, John, I guess our clubbing careers have been cut short now that Beatrice Inn is shut down. Maybe it's just as well for my hearing and my lower back. ;D

(Thanks for the May 9th invite... I'll think about whether or not I can make it... I don't live there - was only visiting...)

Oh, okay. For some reason I thought I remembered you posting way back when that you were on Long Island, but I'm probably confusing you with someone else. Anyway, I hope you can make it to the big bash. 8)

Heya,
So, yesterday and Tuesday I had my own little pilgrimage to the old Broome Street location, of course, in advance of the Brokie gathering at the end of the month. I was in NYC for a quick business meeting and was staying in Soho with a work colleague. I had plenty of opportunities to walk passed Heath's old building and snap some new photos. It really is a haunting experience to encounter that building.
This is the photo I snapped yesterday morning.
And, I was amazed to see the window display in the shop directly across from the 421 building... it was filled with skateboards! Was that shop there before? I found this to be quite a remarkable thing given the spirit of Heath associated with that street.
