It looks like our local BID wants to stretch its boundaries as improvements to Union Square and 14th St. continue to be planned.
Tacos on 12th St., strangely enough in the same location that used to house The Big Enchilada. What’s old is new again.
Both Saigon Market and Mint Kitchen are over. Two large spaces. What will replace them?
Everybody loves Artichoke Pizza on East 14th, but the wait is too long.
The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation reports:
At a meeting for affected property owners last night, the Landmarks Preservation Commission unveiled two small study areas for potential proposed historic districts in the East Village — one on Tompkins Square North and one centered along Second Avenue between Houston St. and St. Marks. This is a preliminary step in their consideration of these districts; the next step will be a public presentation and hearing before Community Board #3’s Landmarks Subcommittee on Thursday, May 12 at 6 pm at BRC, 30 Delancey Street, btw. Chrystie and Forsyth Streets.
We’ll miss Cafe Deville on the corner of 13th and 3rd. Replacing it is Penny Farthing, a gastropub type place that is off to a fast start.
