The Towers
When I was little (mid- to late-1990s) my dad brought this photo of the World Trade Center towers from a vacant house he was painting. I kept it all these years, and came across it again today.

Found on the 6 train during Fleet Week.
Found this note, slightly mildewed and blowing in the snow.
I got this back as change at some restaurant. I can’t remember which, or what I ordered.
I found this on a seat on the uptown number 1 train. There was another find next to it but the writing was a lot more subversive. It said stuff like, “Allah Sucks Dick.” I left it alone. Although this find appeared to be written by the same person, it’s more endearing.
I found this on September 11th, 2001.
After a recent thaw, my dog and I came across this shipping label in the alley behind our apartment.
Found on the subway. So many things to ponder here: the use of a half of a paper with a pixilated wreath on the back, the date written at the top (the first World Trade Center bombing), the gentle script.
Found on a car displaying a “Peace is Patriotic” sign.
