In the heart of a bustling Long Island City lies an unexpected marvel. This glacial rock is a silent testament of the city’s geological history. Despite the chaos surrounding it, it stands resolute, a stoic reminder of a long past. These 2 men conquered the glacial rock with exaggerated grunts and dramatic gestures. Once they reached the summit, they were greeted by a squirrel who seemed unimpressed by their alpine antics.

As far as rocks go, this one is a real winner. Great personality, convivial, and thoughtful, this rock is glacial only in name. Update: 1-24-18 —Went to rock yesterday to relax, noticed striations typical of glacial injuries. Rock seems unperturbed. We spoke about many things, come to believe that rock is very wise. I upgrade rock status to 7 stars, google unresponsive. Will update further as necessary.

Easily the best rock I’ve seen blocking an urban road. It essentially cuts 12th St in half. Strangely there’s no information or signage at the spot and it’s not clear how (or if) this is protected. It should be simply because of how wonderfully absurd it is. Edit: updated in mid 2019 to convert the street to pedestrian only and clean up the place. Nice work and a solid improvement.

I thought it was unappreciated ignored or unknown but it seems this rock is loved by many, thank goodness. As rocks go it is a nice example of a rock, a bone of the earth. Really the asphalt makes it a bit absurd, embarrassing even, though I always smile when I see my friend, the rock. Hopefully it will be there forever. A true throwback to older days. Glacial time marches on and here is a relic of that time...
