Without any additional commentary on yesterday’s “police activity,” today Banksy posted his latest from Hell’s Kitchen with the caption “Waiting in Vain…at the door of the club” on the rolling metal grille of the Hustler Club on the West Side Highway in Hell’s Kitchen. Unlike the other pieces, which required a bit more digging for location, this one is obvious and will probably get mobbed instantly. If you go, do also pay attention the rather incredible faux-Neo Classical architecture. Mid block there’s even a full Greek pediment with 6 doric columns looking out onto the wonderful vista that is the West Side Highway (and further the Hudson River, of course).
