Yesterday afternoon Brooklyn Heights resident Lois Hedlund played “These Foolish Things”, a 1930s hit by the British songwriters Eric Maschwitz (under his pen name, Holt Marvell) and Jack Strachey, on the Adam Suerte decorated “Piano of Hope” on the Pier 1 esplanade, Brooklyn Bridge Park. The piano will be in place through next Saturday, July 2. Video after the jump.
