He was told no indoor dining at all, so he left. I had to wonder where anyone can go to get out of the cold, even just briefly. There's nowhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-31855368772905531882020-12-16T12:54:41.933-05:002020-12-16T12:54:41.933-05:00AgreeAgreeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07555905948354788944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-78998288955181691902020-12-16T12:17:55.954-05:002020-12-16T12:17:55.954-05:00Thanks for this list, Grieve.

Before the pandemic, the By Chloe location on Bleecker and Macdougal was always packed, now it’s all boarded up. The point is that these operations had tens of millions of dollars in backing, and they still could not survive. I’m pretty sure that the family members working at many of the independent places are not getting paid, they are just trying to hold on until this is all over. If popular locals like Jules, Odessa, Gem Spa and Haveli couldn’t survive during better times, it’s hard to see how others will make it through the long winter months.Giovannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061991537085810824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-41603007419544773082020-12-15T18:55:11.389-05:002020-12-15T18:55:11.389-05:00If you can go to Home Depot, Macy's, B&H, ...If you can go to Home Depot, Macy's, B&H, Lord&Taylors, etc, why can't you go to a restaurant?

So many places near us are now running wires overhead from the buildings to the outdoor dining structures. If those wires go down on the sidewalk, it could be bad.
