Look at Subway's big new sign on First Avenue

[Via an EVG reader]

An EVG reader notes the recent arrival of a large banner hanging above the Subway on First Avenue near East Sixth Street... "there's a new sign, in addition to the perpetual 'Grand Opening' sign ... they are now 'Open Late' for all the drunks coming out of bars I guess," per the reader. (And this location hasn't always packed 'em in ... as seen here ... and here ... and here...)

We noticed the banner ourselves for the first time this past weekend. Hard to miss...


This Subway opened last Feb. 8. And what are the term limits for a Grand Opening anyway?

    I pass by there all the time, in fact so frequently that I actually saw a customer in there once. Not everybody can make that claim.

    Ugly banner. Subway sandwiches are truly the worst.

    Open Late seems kind of vague. How late is late, anyway?

    How chic, is this some kind of special downtown, black label Subway?

    I don't think this Subway will survive. The chain is struggling. I am sure soon enough this will be a 7-11.

    @8:14. Way too small for a 7/11. More like a Duane Reade 'Express'
