Avenue A wants its sidewalk back



The New York Sports Club opened at 28 Avenue A back in early March... and the space outside here between East Second Street and East Third Street ...



... remains a work in progress... drawing the ire of at least one person (or more) asking for the release of the sidewalk...



H/T to @fnytv for alerting us to the signs on Saturday.

    Do they still have permits for this? I'm out of town at the moment and can't check but I looked a few weeks ago and it seemed like they did not.

    This combined with their outward swinging door is just terrible.

    Doesn't every door swing outward? I believe it's the fire code so people don't get trapped and can push their way out.

    The problem is that the door swings outward - right into the only part of the sidewalk that is currently available - constant chances for collisions with pedestrians.
