Driving aimlessly around East Hampton's backroads we came across this parking lot. Holy cannoli, we said, is that the Astor Place Cube? What is that doing here? Don't tell me those skate punks also weekend in East Hampton and brought the Cube—properly called "Alamo," by the way—out with them! We lurked in wait for 20 minutes and no scruffy urchins with cardboard signs reading "Hungry, Traveling, Please Help" showed up. Turns out the Cube's sculptor Tony Rosenthal lives in Southampton and a similar iteration was installed in front of Guild Hall, a local museum. Now this one keeps company with two Port-a-Potties in a parking lot. The argument could be made that this is the ideal spot for it.

A few days ago, inexplicably, a perfectly intact pepperoni pizza was seen resting between the tracks of the uptown 6 at Astor Place. A befuddled reader writes:

The big ol' mess pictured above is your beloved Astor Place Cube. They'll be unveiling it at 11 AM — we'd love it if someone could run on down and get us a picture of all the photobloggers wetting themselves.
