Banksy just posted these photos of his latest piece, which is in East New York (alert this guy). The piece—significantly smaller than the massive installation on the Lower East Side yesterday—depicts a beaver standing triumphantly next to a street sign he felled with his chompers.

Since some people leaving comments on his Instagram seem to think this piece is on the East Side of Manhattan, we feel compelled to add here that no, no it is not. It's in East New York, in Brooklyn. We'll update when we find out the cross streets.
UPDATE: The piece is still up as of 1 p.m., and is located at Bradford and Pitkin.
And people are already trying to chisel out the wall:
UPDATE, 2:15 p.m.: Bring five twenty bucks if you head to this piece... some guys are charging!
