DOUBLE ghost signage discovered at 88 3rd Ave.



Earlier last month, EVG reader Dave from 14th Street noted the above ghost signage that workers uncovered while converting the former Amici Pizza into (heh) a Funkiberry Premium Frozen Yogurt shop.

NOW!

EVG regular ~evilsugar notes that there was ghost signage under the Lawrence & Paul's Pizza & Restaurant ghost signage…



Here's a better shot via Scoboco … showing Luigi's 3rd Ave. Pizza…



Meanwhile, the remains of the the Lawrence & Paul's sign are now in the dumpster on Third Avenue…

    No doubt those GENTRIFYERS Lawrence and Paul stole this business from our beloved 3rd Avenue Pizza just before the big crash.

    ....I miss the old East Village.

    That last photo of the broken old sign in the dumpster could be used as shorthand for what is happening to the history of our once fair city. Think they'll let us pick chunks of the molded Rizzoli plaster out of dumpsters when that warm, handcrafted interior is gutted in favor of "luxury" sleek white and aluminum?
