Given the gale-force winds last night (and that rare tornado warning!), we wondered how the neighborhood's outdoor dining structures fared... a quick survey this morning found some damaged spaces along St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue...
Gothamist has a recap of the storm's wrath right here.

The outdoors dining set ups on that block specifically are not very professionally made. I got hit in the face with a pole of a sun umbrella that flew into the air on a previous windy day.
I was worried a lot of these would be damaged last night but most held up with minimal damage. I do worry about the impact of snow and ice on these structures. Maybe there is some varnish/treatment that can be applied to the wood?
These things have got to go, clear the streets for transportation only. The restaurants need federal aid now and deblasio thinks he's a hero with these things.
