Back on Friday, workers removed the glass-enclosed front section of Kitchen Sink, the diner on Second Avenue at Fifth Street ... opening up space for a few more outdoor tables...
...to go with the curbside seats on the Fifth Street side...
Local restaurants are doing what they can to safely increase the number of patrons as there aren't plans for indoor dining in the city anytime soon.
Kitchen Sink is at 88 Second Ave. at Fifth St. (212) 420-8050.
P.S.
The old-look Kitchen Sink with a helpful arrow showing what workers took out...

The only thing they need now is to teach their waitstaff to keep 6 feet distance while taking orders and settling bills. The one who was standing right over my head for 10 minutes, made us very uncomfortable.
Clever move!
Sad that restaurants have to remove their roof to try and survive this lockdown.
I wonder if the DOB and the landlord signed off on that "renovation". Doesn't look very waterproof any longer.
Wow, that’s amazing. At this rate pretty soon they will be putting tables on the fire escapes and up on the roof.
Some of the outdoor dining is nice but I can't wait til it's gone, it's so noisy and it's annoying when you're just trying to walk by. Too much energy lol
Their food is excellent with great prices.
@12:49 just imagine how santa con will be this year.
This is not part of their roof. It is called an enclosed sidewalk permit. Of course I wonder....was the permit ever legal to start with? And now that it is removed, will they be allowed to put it back when the time comes for indoor dining? Still...clever. Maybe Cooper Craft will follow suit.
EV arrow to the point!
Where is EV arrow nowadays? Has it bolted to the suburbs CT, upstate, or follow Altucher in Miami too since there are hardly any ongoing construction cranes or scaffolding to point to?
