"I remember when we could just run outside and jump on one of these old rusty things. Now they’re art. It’s the new New York, I guess."
Said one woman quoted in "There Are Glowing Seesaws in Midtown and New Yorkers Are Losing It/A quick pick-me-up (and drop me down!) in the heart of the busy city" (NYT)(some charming moving pictures at the link).Ranging in length from 16 to 24 feet, each of the seesaws glow from LED augmentation and emit musical sequences as riders bounce up and down. The sounds mingle with the shrieks and whoops of riders....The photos that accompany the NYT article a lovely and romanticize the whole thing, but here's some grittier video which seems to show more what it really looks like:
Hardly any seesaws have been installed in the last 30 years, after federal guidelines began limiting their use in 1981, according to a New York City Department of Parks and Recreation official.
Still, they have a certain appeal.
Sitting on the seesaw is part exercise in trust (often in a complete stranger), part escapism.
Thus articles "I remember when we could just run outside and jump on one of these old rusty things. Now they’re art. It’s the new New York, I guess."
