- Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: person struck by train at 57th and 6th, an armed robbery on 11th and 7th, and a bank robbery in Park Slope.
- The Madison Avenue antiques store suing the homeless for $1m may have made a major miscalculation: one of the bums has some very rich friends.
- Related: a Post writer decided to pretend to be homeless on the Upper East Side. Total day's take: $18.55! That's just slightly less than the daily take-home pay of an average Post reporter.
- Jen vetoed doing a followup post on the bones found at the Trump construction site in SoHo, even after we made her this amazing illustration for the story.
- Welcome NYC Visitors! "While parked in front of an elementary school in Brooklyn, sometime between 1:00pm and 5:00pm (the middle of the day), someone thought it would be nice to smash our van's side window, reach in and steal a bunch of our stuff."
- Wow-- that's the biggest graffiti piece we've ever seen.
- Reminder: if you're buying a condo, it's probably a lot smaller than the broker claims.
