Yesterday, EV Grieve reader Ryan on Avenue A sent along some photos of workers removing the Graceland canopy/sign on Avenue A and Second Street......revealing the former tenant...
I went by later to catch a look at the sign...
Unfortunately, I was too late to see the sign on the Second Street side... workers had already ripped it off...
Damn! How cool to reveal a ghost sign...they should have covered it up again with the new sign (for what ever business that may be) to preserve a future surprise.
Here, you'll find things that you may or may not be interested in about the East Village and other parts of New York City. Appreciating what's here while it's still here. Remembering what's no longer here. Wishing some things weren't here that are here.

Yeah, probably a landfill somewhere, Glamma....
