Why some people think Billy Leroy is dead

As you know, Billy's Antiques and Props as we know it is gone over on Houston near the Bowery... the former home of Billy's tent is drawing some curious onlookers... many of whom believe that Billy himself died.... helped, in part, by that missing s in the homemade RIP Billy sign... (it should read "RIP Billy's")


... not to mention the workers on the scene who may be playing along with the death rumor ... In any event, the casket lying in state, as BoweryBoogie put it, continues to draw curious onlookers...



Perhaps this will become the next stop on the Dead Apple Tours...

    I just realized -- 288, the bar, will be flooded with sunlight until construction begins.

    Good to hear, Billy. I was going to sneak in and open the casket!

    Because you must be on drugs if you ever think that that store is coming back. It's got no place in New New York. He's functionally dead.
