First We Had the Blue Thingies -- Now We Have the Press Conference (At Brooklyn Borough Hall)

Forget about Iraq, Atlantic Yards or the presidential election. You know those blue thingies on the steps at Brooklyn Borough Hall? Artist Mark A. Reigelman II created them, and lo, he called them "Stair Squares." (see "Blue Thingies at Brooklyn Borough Hall")

There will actually be a press conference about them on Friday, August 24 at 12:30 p.m. at Borough Hall. Everybody will be there. At least, everybody still in town, which means the staff at the Starbucks on Court Street, the Brooklyn Cyclones, and Channel 12.

It must be summer.
