What's happening with the former Edge space?



The Edge, the neighborhood bar on Third Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue, closed last September after 29 years in business.

The space had been on the rental market... of late, though, the for lease sign hasn't been visible.

An EVG tipster says there has been some activity in the space, and points to clues in the front window of a possible new tenant...



However, there aren't any work permits on file for the storefront that might provide any details, such as if workers are venting the space for cooking.

Updated

This sign is now on the front door... Reso Box...

    Grieve - this is awesome. Such a small news story, but literally right on my block and something I've been curious about for awhile.

    What did the east village do to deserve someone of your caliber covering our little beat?

    EV Grieve's opening a new bar there "House Of Grieve."

    (Just kidding but it'd be cool if there was a spot EV readers, commenters, and people who are both could congregate.)
