Work happening inside the former Nicoletta space; please mind the carpenter



EVG regulars Vinny & O share these photos, showing work happening inside the former Nicoletta space on 10th Street at Second Avenue.

There aren't any updated work permits on file with the city, so we don't know exactly what's happening here at the moment.

However, there is a homemade sign to "beware of carpenter" ...



The much-heralded pizzeria from Michael White closed last December at this address after six-plus years in business. They are still delivering pizzas from an undisclosed location.

This corner space doesn't appear to be on the retail market. It had been asking nearly $18,000 per month.

Bring back Cafe Centosette. So many good memories there, except maybe for the last time, when the middle aged women at the next table was lecturing her much younger boy toy about the evils of unionized labor, which she said was ruining capitalism for Wall Street investment bankers such as herself. Which explains why she left such a lousy tip for her waiter.

IIRC, Nicoletta did not get very good reviews for its food.

Depends whom you ask. The pizza is sturdy, filling, and tasty. I used to get regular urges for it, particularly on discount nights.

RE Nicoletta: “They are still delivering pizzas from an undisclosed location.“

I’m imagining Dick Cheney caged up in a dark basement flipping pies.
