Near both the Manhattan Bridge and Brooklyn Bridge we spotted these mosaics. They remind me of a classic arcade game but I can’t remember which.

Space Invaders!

Maybe you’ve seen these already, but I think they are in part responsible for the mosaics.
It looks like an extensive invasion in many countries.
oh! i so want to go looking for the other ones around new york now… btw, these two i took weren’t pictured on the site.
i was thinking arkanoid or break-out

I believe these mosaics were done by French artists, there are all over Paris.

More space invaders
More aliens in the streets…
The mosiac invasion has also spread to the UK and especially my home town of Manchester. There are nearly 50 mosiacs in Manchester alone.
