Iggy's is apparently open



There were balloons and people inside, according to a tipster. Maybe even free slices? And how was the pizza? "I wasn't hungry."

Anyone else try the pizza?

Former Five Rose's space gutted

Our friend Hunter-Gatherer just snapped these photos of the former Five Rose's space on First Avenue between 10th Street and 11th Street....(He would have posted them himself, but he was a little pissed/depressed about all this...)





Ouch. Last rumor we heard: another pizza place was moving in... And has anyone heard from Krystyna?

The former Five Rose's is for rent; memories remain

The "store for rent" sign is up at Five Rose's, the beloved pizza shop on First Avenue between 10th Street and 11th Street that closed Nov. 29.



Meanwhile, in the right front window...Let's see how much longer the landlord will allow the memories to last...I took these photos late Sunday afternoon...[Update: See the comments...Jeremiah reports that the thank-you sign and photos are gone...while another commenter correctly points out that the landlord is the former owner of the business.]

A bouquet for Five Rose's Pizza

Hunter-Gatherer pays tribute to Five Rose's Pizza on First Avenue. The neighborhood fixture closed Saturday. Rent hike, of course. As H-G writes:

Truth be told, as I would walk by the location I often wondered how long they could survive in the Nouvelle Village Est. With a place like Momofuko next door, I’m sure other local landlords are salivating over rent hikes as well.
