The Panda Express Chinese Kitchen signage arrived yesterday on the SW corner of 14th Street and First Avenue, as EVG regular Pinch shows us...
News of the PE arrival first surfaced in January (31 comments!).
This marks the latest outpost for the quick-serve Chinese restaurant chain that launched in California in 1983 ... with more than 2,000 locations today (with a handful around NYC).
An AT&T store was here for a few months... taking over for the Vitamin Shoppe.
Remember when this was the love store and a real bank !
ReplyDeleteGo team panda!
ReplyDeleteCant wait to NEVER eat here!
ReplyDeleteThis cliche is really tired by now
DeleteFinally an establishment that will bring some class to this neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteRemember when half the sidewalk - the sidewalk, not the street - wasn't taken up by those G-D Shittybkikes?

ReplyDeleteNYC economic recovery has been slower than the rest of the country. There are almost 270, 000 fewer jobs than Feb 2020. We need stores to open and people to get hired.
ReplyDeleteNYC is coming back Get ready for commuters this Fall then it’s back to normal.
ReplyDelete@8:00PM: I don't know how you arrived at your conclusion, but you're wrong. You'll see how wrong you are later this year. "Commuters" is such a nebulous thing to hang your hat on.
ReplyDeleteJust below the Flatiron they removed outdoor seating and replaced it with citibike.
