What a week it’s been for the crazy super signs superintendent. 

First, both my catalog of his signs as well as the catalog of Right In Bay Ridge gets picked up by Curbed, then the New York Times online, now both the New York Post, and Daily News have both run articles about him and his signs - which Gawker then picked up and ran a post about their articles.

Anyways, here’s the superintendent, proudly showing off his handy work of garbage cans inside of the building lobby, as seen in the Daily News - what is not seen is how there are garbage cans in the stairwells as well, not sure if that’s a fire code violation.

I will gladly go on record to say that this man had left thousands of piles of dog shit on his block in the decade plus of his living there, and gets visibly and vocally angry when called out on not picking up after his dogs. 

Also, it’s a damn shame he’s wearing such a puffy jacket that doesn’t show off the padded bra that he so proudly wears in public normally.  It’s probably the most likeable thing about him - but I’m getting off topic now with that. 

Here he is in the New York Post with his newest dog, I’m not sure of it’s name.

Not pictured is “Heather”, the small, old, gray poodle whom I’ve personally seen him kick numerous time on the sidewalk because she’s old and walks slowly, and “King”  (R.I.P) the German Shepard with whom shared the same exact cough as Martin for years…you can think whatever you want to come to the conclusion as to how they had the same exact cough, everyone else in the neighborhood already has…

Also, I’m not sure who the Daily News is quoting, saying “if everyone cared about Bay Ridge half as much as Martin, it would be a much better place to live.”  But whomever THAT person is, they sure as heck need to get a grip on the reality that Richard Martin IS the problem.
