Openings and reopenings on 3rd Avenue: Han Dynasty and Olio e Più

A few recent Third Avenue openings to note.

The new outpost of Han Dynasty is up and running at 98 Third Ave., between 12th and 13th Streets... four storefronts north of its previous home at 90 Third Ave.
The new, larger space was previously Bar None for 17 years. 

Hit the Han Dynasty website for hours, menus, etc. 

And on the NW corner of Third Avenue and 13th Street, Olio e Più debuted earlier in May ... (pics below by Stacie Joy).
This will be the third NYC outpost for the Italian trattoria that also has locations in Chicago and Washington, D.C. 

Per its website, the EV spaces will also offer a "warm and welcoming setting for private events, cocktail receptions, and group gatherings across two floors. Our private balcony looks out over one of downtown's most beloved streets..." [Ed note: ?]
The address (106 Third Ave.) last housed Thirty Love Sports & Leisure and the Memory Motel pop-up. The corner spot was also previously home to various sports bars with animal names in their titles: the Brazen Fox, Ugly Duckling and blue bird.
