The corner of Vernon and 50th St. was quiet.

Plenty of digging up in the morning.

We’ve uncovered a video that we forgot about that we shot during Hurricane Sandy. This was hours before sundown at Center Blvd, and as you can see, not the safest place to be. The winds were picking up hard and high tide was on its way.

If you have seen the new JetBlue sign in LIC, you’ll notice that it’s quite prominent. But why should you care?

Well, JetBlue is giving away two round trip travel certificates if you send a picture of the sign (you can’t use the picture above, duh) via Twitter with the hashtag #BrightLightsBlueCity. You’ve got until September 19th to climb a tower and snap the winning shot!
