Help warm a heart this winter by donating a coat. Lands End and the Boston Coalition for the Homeless are encouraging residents to donate gently used coats for a cause that hits home, literally.
Their bone chilling display on the Prudential plaza really exemplifies the stark reality of Boston’s homeless problem. Hard to ignore, this parade of human card board cut outs represents the increasing number of homeless in our great city who stand faceless. (Each figure represents 10 homeless people)
To find out more information and to learn where to donate visit Big Boston Warm Up. The website is also a shocker and contains many appalling facts that would make even the biggest Scrooge search his closet for a donation.
A little strapped for cash these days? Head on down to Copley Square today and join the “Trident Army.” It only takes 5 minutes and a photogenic face. Insecure ego’s need not apply. What’s your reward for entering this public rally? $20 bucks cash, on the spot!
Additionally, your painted warrior mug will be displayed on the Trident Facebook Page after each city is conquered.
Earlier last year the Street Attack blog featured unique designs for houses using shipping containers. Here we are again to proclaim a magnificent marketing campaign for Puma that exemplifies a spectacular use of shipping containers.
Puma City, a traveling store and lounge (complete with bar) will be constructed in multiple destinations across the world and is making its next stop here in Boston. This traveling city is part of a campaign release for the new Puma Sailing Collection and will following the Volvo Ocean Race across the world. Coming from Alicante, Spain where the race began in September 2008 the City is scheduled to open on Boston’s Fan Pier on April 25.
The structure was designed and assembled in China and has over 11,000 square feet of space made from twenty-four, forty-four foot shipping containers. Each container weighs in at eleven tons! It’s definitely a must see for this spring in the Boston Area. The Street Attack crew is sure to be present at some of its happenings so maybe we’ll see you there. We’ll be at the bar.

Boston’s own, Barnicle, through their record release party at the Middlesex Lounge in Cambridge, MA. Hosted by Sidehatch Entertainment, Digital photobooth provided by Street Attack.
As predicted, the Boston Mashable event was a huge success. We were honored to be one of the marketing partners, and were even more excited to bring our photo booth. We got a great picture of Pete Cashmore holding up one of our pics! We also got a nice little shout out on Steve Garfield’s site Off On A Tangent Thanks Steve! Looking forward to the NYC event tomorrow.
