Ghost signage uncovered at the now-closed Loisaida Ave. Deli on Avenue C

The deli on Avenue C at East Fourth Street was open for business yesterday ... but closed today... and @artisanmatters passes along the ghost signage that workers uncovered ... a few years back when it was the Los Muchachos Supermarket ...



Not sure the status at the moment of the Loisaida Ave. Deli ... perhaps a renovation?

  1. This is the deli that a few years back—after "Los Muchachos" had already closed, was called "Deli Corb." and had an orange awning. *

    Anybody remember that?

    * (The sign was then doctored by hand to change the "b" into a "p," but the damage was done. I tend to wonder why business owners don't get a third party to proofread their copy before sending it to the sign painter.)

  2. That wasn't a few years back, that was many years back.

  5. ..they also sold copper wire/brillo for the crackheads at 50 cent a pop. First time I saw that I did a double take. Anyway- seedy spot but you can get a smoke for 50 cents 24 hours a night. It was a nice luxury..au revior
