Someone stole the bench from outside Hearth last night
On East 12th Street at First Avenue.
Per the restaurant's Instagram account: "Our bench has been taken on an adventure...who steals a bench anyway?"
Well, those kids in the new garden apartments at [redacted] are paying top dollar for this stuff. We'll see if we can get a before photo of the bench to share...

If they left this outside overnight, what did they expect? This is a CITY. Its full of thieving scumbags.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a vigilante stole the illegal bench?
ReplyDeleteWith the ubiquity of cameras these days would think the departure is captured on video somewhere.
ReplyDeleteThe Bench in front of Kabin is also missing....Hmmm
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, the bench in front of the Hells Angel's headquarters is still there.
ReplyDelete"Who steals a bench anyway?"
ReplyDeletePeople who like sitting?
Don't get me wrong, people shouldn't steal things that don't belong to them. But it is a bit precious that Hearth thinks that no one wants a bench in their living room. People take shit just because they can.
They sell it on the black market. There is a whole underground of people who steal plants and bushes out of people's yards. My grandmother had the old weathervane stolen off the barn's fucking roof! To a junkie, $5 is $5.
ReplyDeleteBro, sweet chair for roof top keg party's
ReplyDeletePeople correctly assume this city was founded on crime, but living here many years makes me realize the that everyone is connected. Crime is often done by outsiders with a pervasive attitude that no one in a city will notice or care...
ReplyDeleteregardless, its idiotic and pretentious to think you could leave something in public and not have it taken.
ReplyDeleteI've eyeballed that bench, its cheap crap and not worth stealing. The first frat ass that stands on it will snap it in two. ha !
