Clearing out the Edge



Workers quickly took down the Edge signage and cleared out the former bar space on Third Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue.

As this photo via an EVG reader shows, bar stools and other items were up for grabs on the curb.

After 29 years, The Edge closed for good after service on Saturday. "We'll just say [the landlord, Thermald Realty Associates] found an opportunity to sue us for a bunch of money that we can't pay," a bar rep told us last month.

We haven't heard just yet if there is anyone lined up for the storefront... or if the space will be put on the rental market.
