The Gem Spa, can't be long for this world right? I don't see how you can pay the rent in this day and age selling newspapers, mags, tobacco, drinks and candy. Who buys a newspaper anymore. Magazines? Why would I spend money on those when I could like, look at stuff for free on the online. Egg creams? Eww Megan, what's that? Let's go to 16 Handles. Gem Spa might have old school cred and funkiness but its lost on this new world. Plus the new neighbor in 7-11 has got to be making a dent in their junk food sales.

We love tips
Have a story idea or tip about something happening in the East Village? Or maybe a photo? Or several photos? Or video! We'd love to hear about it. Or see it. Or something. Please go here to submit a tip.
By the way
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.
