Renovations began in February at the former Cafe Rama. Last fall, the Bean had plans to take over this space, though they ultimately decided to focus instead on the new locations on Second Avenue/Third Street and First Avenue/Ninth Street.
You know, Corner Bistro would be a nice name for this location. But that's taken. And we've had enough lawsuits around here...
[Thanks to @ThePeterHa for the heads up on the sign's arrival.]

Saw this on my way to the subway this morning, and was struck by how... normal it looks. No subway, no locally-sourced organic free range artisan nonsense. Here's hoping it lives up to that.
Nothing succeeds at this location, and nothing ever will. Yet they keep on trying.
Same story as the bars that open on 2nd Ave. and 4th Street.
Must be bad feng shui.

I hate this kind of shit. It's just as bad as a Subway or a Duane Reade. I'd rather it just be a boarded-up hole.
Oh, if only The Bean had moved in there, so close to the train. I really really miss them being on 1st Ave.
