That’s a whole bunch of pumpkins! And who knew they could atrophy?

Brownstoner: It’s time for what’s become an annual Cobble Hill tradition: the great Kane Street pumpkin line-up. Every year (except one) since 1998, local artist Jane Greengold along with home owner Chip Gray have carved 100 or so pumpkins to line the fence of 176 Kane Street at the corner of Strong Place in Cobble Hill. They’re lit on Halloween night and then left their to atrophy and die. As the tipster who sent this in wrote, “It’s a very temporary, very local work of public art.”

    How perfect! I was wondering if it would be up this year. I hadn’t actually thought of it as public art, but now that you mention it, it sure fits the bill.
    Happy Halloween!
