It was only a matter of time before someone filed the paperwork for the demolition of 74 Third Ave., the former home of Nevada Smith's. (The soccer/football bar will eventually reopen at 100 Third Ave. For now, Webster Hall is showing the games/matches.)
As of this week, the plans are on file and approved, according to the DOB.

Beautiful architecture. Unbelievably original.

SHHHHH Uncle Waltie! When new buildings are going up, the best I hope for is bland. The less adjectives an architect knows the better!
I get passing a Spring/summer afternoon eating overpriced hotdogs/drinking overpriced beer at a ballpark (haven't felt any desire to do that since the new yankee stadium went up), but the attraction of getting shitfaced watching soccer on tv in a dark overcrowded bar on a saturday morning/after noon is just not comprehensible.
