NYC decommissioned the corner fire boxes under mayor Giuliani, not least since cellphones and 911 had made them largely obsolete. No one in 2005 would run out to the nearest corner firebox to pull the handle in case of emergency. Anyhow, a very clever artist has created an altar evoking Jorge Posada et al inside an old firebox at the corner of Tenth Avenue and West 19th Street. Makes me feel like visiting Xochicalco or Xochimilco; dia de los muertos is only a month away.
