Thanks, Alex. I've even heard of someone who wanted to put potted trees on the curb.
well granted, none of that's going on the curb, and we're keeping the planters (a big part of the expense is getting the trees out of them). but yeah, that's really the thing in NYC, sometimes people get caught in a bind (eviction, last minute move, bad breakup, etc), and sadly it's cheaper and easier to just curb-it and hope someone else can make use of it.
On the flip-side, we've found many amazing antique-ish furniture items (and other little gems) over the years that way too, literally just dumped cuz I suppose they just couldn't go "along for the ride".
You're absolutely right. Lots of extenuating circumstances can be a factor. When you live near millions of people, all you need is a few a night to be set.
If you get the chance, feel free to share some of those finds one day.
