Now, here comes another theory via EV Grieve reader BodegaMan:
I've been speculating that the building on sixth is owned by Joey Slotnick.
I saw him on the stoop there once when it was still standing, and he's business partners with Schwimmer in a theater company in Chicago. So maybe they use the same manager or something. I see him around the neighborhood regularly.
First, we had to look up Joey Slotnick. Oh, yes — we recognize him. (The fellow on the left up there.)
And yes, according to IMDB, he is an ensemble member of Chicago's Lookingglass Theatre Company along with fellow member David Schwimmer ... and someone spotted him drinking at the 12th Street Ale House ... and...
OK, a little flimsy, perhaps?
Meanwhile. Next theory!
Oh, also... a commenter on Friday's Schwimmer post said that the DOB slapped a Stop Work Order dated from Wednesday on the pit. We meant to walk by... but per the DOB site (in ALL CAPS!) ...

i saw slotnick eating in vandaag 2-3 weeks ago....took me a while to remember what tv show i knew him from....knew the connection was jonathan silverman....imdb results - the single guy.
Slotnick's picture is on the wall at Eisenberg's... I knew I recognized him from somewhere.
I sat next to Slotnick at the counter at Momofuku a while ago. I don't know why I find that important in any way. I guess I don't. Yet still I comment.
If there's one thing I've learned after 7+ years in the EV, it's trust the BodegaMan.
I live 2 buildings down from 331 and personally watched that Joey Slotnick person move in around 2009-2010. As much as I enjoy the random Schwimmer bashing I felt I should point this out.
