Get your morning scoop on the movin' Manhattan Bridge, Williamsburg's wet Pool Party, a reality star's trashy ways, and parrots in the subways in today's local blog round-up.
- An artist created this time-lapse video of the Manhattan Bridge on the move, flexing under the weight of a passing subway train. It's both beautiful and scary. [Gothamist]
- The Williamsburg Waterfront Pool Party went on as scheduled yesterday, but organizers pulled the plugs early once the storms came in around 6:30. [Obscene NYC]
- Let this be a lesson for apartment owners looking to sublet their apartment out...don't open your doors to trashy reality show contestants. The former America's Next Top Model contestant CariDee English left a New York apartment in shambles, littered with fake tanner, black sludge and "short black hairs" littered around the bathroom. [Gawker]
- Parrots in the subways! A commuter shot (with a camera) a parrot at the Queensborough Plaza station in Queens, and this blogger thinks it might be a fugitive. [Brooklyn Parrots]
- Bike thefts are picking up in both Park Slope and Carroll Gardens, and neighborhood residents have taken to parking theirs indoors. [Lost City]
