Being Bushwick, being Frank Rathbone.

Being Bushwick, being Frank Rathbone.

I mean… This is pretty simple

I mean… This is pretty simple. Without certain particular things and people life in Bushwick wouldn’t be as colorful, as entertaining and as …. Bushwicky as it is now. And thank god for them! You know, Evergreen Avenue wouldn’t be so much fun if you didn’t have a bike and couldn’t ride it down happy as a kid. Bushwick wouldn’t be as beautiful without a sudden slot between two warehouses that offers amazing sight of the Manhattan skyline that surprises you again and again on Cypress. Most certainly you grew fonder of Bushwick because of the rain deer graffiti on Troutman. And if Frank Rathbone, a musician, a guitar player and a frontman of a cult Bushwick band Photon Dynamo and the Shiny Pieces moved away from Bushwick tomorrow, the entire neighborhood would have to close down. For sure!
