The Wall of Kindness on Essex St.

I was walking around Chinatown and the Lower East Side yesterday when I came across this “Wall of Kindness” located adjacent to a construction site. I nearly passed it entirely since it blended in with the construction office trailer.

I’ve never seen one of these “Wall of Kindness” things before but a quick search looks like its an on-going worldwide project to help those who are less fortunate. This one encourages people to recycle their coats on the hooks for other people to pick up if they need. Visit or donate on Essex St across from Seward Park.
