Instead of Thai Food, Coffee
One of new stores moving into the old Spice space at University and 10th will be Recess, which promises coffee, chocolate, frozen yougurt, and a new cafe paradigm. Should be interesting.
I write to remind all that the lower 8 floors of this building are still a construction site which is regulated by the Department of Buildings. New School has heard your complaints but at this time we do not control this site. It is our hope that when we take over the building we can make some necessary changes. The University Center is a LEED building with many energy saving designs incorporated into the building so that we will be good neighbors.
Next week (December 23rd to December 27th ), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on the academic floors inside the building. (Site closed on Christmas)
The following week (December 30th to January 3rd ), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on academic floors (Site closed on New Year’s Day)
This weekend the site will be open on Saturday and Sunday, December 21st and 22nd for interior activities between the work hours of 7AM and 7PM as permitted by the City.
Due to an increasing number of thefts of UPS packages which are left unattended by the UPS delivery man outside shareholders’ doors, the procedure will now change. UPS will no longer leave packages unattended upstairs. Instead, he will place them behind the locked door off the lobby, to which he and Niall will have a key. A notification of package arrival will be on the bulletin board. You can then get in touch with Niall to get the package.
Please address any questions to Niall.
Scout Willis, the underage daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, was busted for drinking a beer while walking around Union Square last week. Having a fake ID and a bad attitude certainly didn’t help matters.
New York City’s most iconic holiday market is back. The Union Square Holiday Market by Urbanspace returns this year on Thursday, November 17th with 170+ vendors showcasing a dynamic mix of global cuisines, original art, handcrafted accessories, and more. The market will be open through Saturday, December 24th.
Union Square’s BlueWater Grill may be gone as of next fall because the landlord, the same guy who priced Union Square Cafe out of the neighborhood, is at it again.
How annoying. The New School construction site seems to be getting its daily dumpster deliveries at 4:15AM. So noisy. Good morning!
