Workers have raised the "99¢ Pizza Coming Soon" sign in between two vacant storefronts on Avenue A near East Sixth Street.
We've seen workers gutting the inside of the former Benny's to-go space in the past few days.
On either side, the former D-Lish Pita ($6k) and Benny's ($22k) storefronts remain for rent.

Gross. Nino's should relocate into this space.
Q: What can you still get for $1. ?
A: A shitty slice of pizza.
There was a pizza place there from 1995 to about 2005. It had relocated from the spot next to Niagara, which is in the Joe Strummer building. Why would a pizza place there succeed now if the previous one did not?
^ Better pizza, tons of drunk and sober bros, she-bros, NYUers, etc. looking for cheap eats, lack of cheap eats, and so on.
I think Nino's would do better in a smaller location.
I'm all for less government, but I'd like the city to ban the dollar pizza.
Great. More loitering and loud drunk people on my block. Looking forward.
Let's hope they follow the other 99 cent pizza places that have closed. 99 cent pizza tastes like shit.
Live on that block. I'll rest easy knowing when I see a pile of fresh sick at 4pm on Saturday its contents are cheap, oily cheese, and not some mystery substance I can't identify.
The east village has always been about loitering and loud drunk people I should know I've lived here for almost a year now.
Hear me out, I almost long for the Giuliani days of giving people a summons for public intoxication, think of the money the city could reap in one East Village weekend. I guess liquor licenses and taxes from bars and high rents which makes the real-estate cartell happy is all that matters.
Eat at home people. Eating out should be reserved for special occasions.
99c pizza won't make it there either.

Is this is real, it's pretty funny. If not, it's pretty funny as well. Win, win.

Glad you enjoyed it but no, it is not real at least not coming from me.
When I first moved to the East Village, St. Mark's Pizza slices were 90¢. People complained when the prices went up. Nino's even put up a sign saying "Do not complain about the price"! Now prices are going down, and people complain. How strange is that?
