Sometimes I wonder… Usually, playing word association with the words “transformer” and “East Village” leads directly to Lou Reed’s classic album and that East Village anthem (for me), Perfect Day. Today, it’s a transformer fire on 13th and D. As you can see, the view from my roof is never dull. I was at my computer when my air conditioner suddenly sounded like it went into overdrive. Instead, it was a whole power plant that had gone berserk, just a bit further away.
