Union Square Celebrates Obama

Japanese megastore UNIQLO has finally arrived at the northwest corner of Union Square in the former PETCO location. It was also the location of one of the final versions of Andy Warhol’s factory. Stop by to see some special Union Square themed T-shirts.

Niall will be away until Thursday October 15.

Backing him up is James, at 917-689-4884

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.

The board is currently searching for a super. It is taking a bit of time, but obviously it wants to make the right decision and find the perfect person. Please stand by.

What a surprise that Dean & Deluca on University has closed after more than 15 years. What will become of that prime location?

Wondering what happened to the cute green building on 13th between 5th and 6th that housed Taste of Tokyo and La Dolce Vita? It’s gone. In its place will rise a small boutique hotel.
