The Skeleton of 12 East 14

A true neighborhood standy is officially gone. So long to the Giant Bagel Shop on the corner of University and 13th. Who knows what will take over that high-traffic space.

Join The New School’s Fabio Parasecoli for New York City’s first college pop-up class will at Union Square’s Greenmarket on Wednesday, April 20 at 11 a.m.

A world-travelled food and culture expert, Fabio leads The New School’s Food Studies program, which examines the cultural, political, and economic significance of how and why we eat.

With the Greenmarket as his classroom, Professor Parasecoli will conduct a unique cultural, historical, and environmental lesson in food – with the farmers as participating experts – as collective thoughts turn to spring produce, Easter dinners and Passover recipes.

At the end of the pop-up class, he’ll offer up a Greenmarket recipe and answer questions. The class starts by the statue of Gandhi at the south-west corner of Union Square–look for The New School signs!

Popeye’s and its famous chicken sandwich have landed on the corner of University Place and 14th St.

This week (February 4 to February 8), material and equipment deliveries and installation work will continue on all floors and roofs as well as sidewalk work.

You may remember The Adore on the 13th St. block. Now, a couple of doors down at the former site of the copy shop and, briefly, Blossom de Jour, will be a new French/Japanese bakery called Patisserie Fouet.

On University near 10th…the most expensive personal grooming products on Earth.
