Lou Reed & Laurie Anderson playing Canal Park Friday
"The new Canal Park at the west end of Canal St. might be a tiny sliver of green in the concrete madness that is the West Side Highway, but that doesn’t mean it’s undeserving of a hearty welcome. The new park will be dedicated on Fri., Oct. 21, at 2 p.m. to the tune of Lou Reed, the illustrious front man from Velvet Underground turned solo singer. Reed and his wife, Laurie Anderson, are members of the Canal Park Conservancy, which will help fund the maintenance of the triangular oasis. The free concert starts at 7:30 p.m." [Downtownexpress]

Good of Laurie and Lou to get involved with improving their 'hood. However, this "oasis" is surrounded on all sides by highway traffic. It would be a great place to sit and ruminate about how every automobile these days looks the same. Hope the volume of their concert rises above the din of the auto traffic.
