Improv Everywhere had over 2,000 members walking invisible dogs in Cobble Hill yesterday, and pictures from participants are posted here and here. The leashes were borrowed from the new Invisible Dog Gallery at 51 Bergen Street.

Large Cobble Hill Turnout This morning
Picture taken at 630a, from BK11201.com
The line wrapped around the block this morning at PS29, where neighborhood residents showed up early to vote in this year’s election.

Tip of the day — figure out your district before showing up, it’ll save you an hour!
