Sin Will Find You Out!


I love religious crosses with neon-lettering attached to buildings, especially when they have ominous messages. Ignoring the tackiness factor, the fact that anyone seriously thinks these are still effective in modern day New York, to the point where they continue to replace the neon, is just incredible to me…and in a way, makes them all the more iconic. Here’s a good one on East 51st Street (as you can see, it was blizzarding out today)…

I really have to go back and take a picture when this is lit up at night: SIN WILL FIND YOU OUT. (Does this mean we are destined to sin no matter what? Sort of depressing…).

Then again, it is minutes from Times Square…guess it’s just more of the same.

UPDATE!

Both readers Meredith and Rebecca have shot this at night…Here’s Meredith’s picture:

  1. My friends and I get a kick out of it, every time we walk into the gay bar next door. We always thought it was intended for us.

  2. It’s a registered city land mark. They couldn’t change it if they tried. It’s also a soup kitchen. Check it out, they aren’t the way you’d think.
