Bernie and Herb’s has opened at 28 East 16th St., the recent site of Flat Fix and the former site of the much missed Coffee Shop VIP Room. In a nostalgic twist, the owners have resurrected the Coffee Sign and will install it soon, so the facade will ultimately look like this:
Warby Parker’s 200th real-world store is located nearby at 73 5th Avenue.
Next week (May 20 to May 24), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on all floors inside the building. We will be working on the new sidewalks around the building and installing new curbs and will be removing the sidewalk shed along 13th st. Additionally we will be working on the roofs of the building.
The following week (May 27 to May 31), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on all floors as well as sidewalk work.
This weekend the site will be open on Saturday, May 18th for interior, roof, and sidewalk activities between the work hours of 7AM and 5PM as permitted by the City.
TGI Fridays signage is now up on Union Square East.
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.
On Saturdays Aug. 3, 10, and 17th, enjoy 8 hours of car free streets on Park Avenue S, Union Sq E and 4th Ave, with countless programs and activities from 7AM to 3PM. Summer Streets provides space for healthy recreation and encourages New Yorkers to use more sustainable forms of transportation.
