I’m not the most adept business man, but the pizza row situation seems a little silly. Also, that Birdbath space is a pretty decent size (the storefront was small but the back area is big, it’s where they did a lot of the baking for the other location).

True! I only just noticed how big that space was after the bakery moved out...
has anybody ever looked at how many places have gone from beer/wine to full liquor licenses, and how long it took for that application?
just what we need - a hot-dog stand that sells beer and wine (papaya king), on st. marks place yet. good for all the woo woos that congregate here, no longer just on week ends.
we are so lucky.
Ugh, this is a nightmare. Pretty soon there won't be any neighborhood at all, just another Bourbon St.
Only one zip code in all of the US has more liquor licenses than the EV - the strip in Vegas. That's just sad.
I want to know what fat fuck is eating all the pizza? How do these awful places stay in business? I would never step foot in a $1 pizza joint (because I'm sure their ingredients tastes like dead rats) or that other gross approximation/franchise or whatever the fuck it is (I can't even remember their gross name). Eeeewww. Sorry, I'm not having a good day and this is making it worse. To say nothing of the monstrosity that will be rising on 12th & A. What is happening to our poor, sweet neighborhood?!
So happy...well, we finally got our own "Risotteria". Spaghetteria, Mac and Cheeseria...what's next? Diarrhea?
