About the hole in ground at the Marble Cemetery

Here we are at the Marble Cemetery on East Second Street...EV Grieve contributor Bobby Williams took these shots yesterday ... he noted the activity, though no one was around to ask things like What in God's name is going on here!



Regardless, please don't let your overactive, sensationalist minds think this is something about, say, grave robbing or zombies or explosives ... We're certain there's a logical explanation for this... Like!

a) Routine cemetery maintenance
b) A new theme bar called Lucky Stiffs
c) Hyperlocal blogger misunderstands the expression "digging for a story"
d) Death + Company is moving
e) Longtime tenants forced out by rent hike
f) Shake Shack

Or maybe you have a better idea...

    Cheated out of building that fourth tower on the University Village superblock, NYU prepares to further expand into the East Village wherever and however they can.

    Can we dump Bloomturd in it? We might have trouble stuffing in his ego, but everything else could fit.

    I think that Marty's 'Hole Foods' comment takes the cake!
