Seen Around Sheepshead Bay: Leaning Tower of Paper

These newspaper towers were seen on Sheepshead Bay Road between Voorhies Ave and Shore Parkway. One of them was leaning so precariously that it looked like an accident waiting to happen. It’s a good thing it was attached by a chain — or maybe if it wasn’t attached by a chain, someone could do us a favor and cart it off.

Are we so in need of these free papers, which are mainly advertising, that our sidewalks have to be cluttered?

Note: If anyone knows the technical name for this type of dispenser, please let us know.
