The Bean sprouts artwork on First Avenue


Work continues at the incoming Bean location at 147 Ave. at East Ninth Street ... in the last few days, Walker Fee, who is part of artist Nicolina's team, has been creating the artwork here... adds a nice splash of color to a cellblocky-looking building...

This is an Icon realty building. Do your own search.

Woo! Everybody celebrate. I would love to see the old Angelica herb shop. Miss that old world charm.

Icon is running an illegal hotel at 325 E. 10th called thae Hotel Toshi. I guess nobody can do anything about it. If you do a search on Icon Realty you can read more about them.

Cool addition! Reminiscent of our favorite East Village tile artist's work....

Not fugly - good stuff. We need more to balance out the growing monochromatic glass-and-steel garbage.
