Someone/Something broke a big window at the 1st Avenue McDonald's
From last night. Over here on First Avenue at the McDonald's next to the Subway… the big window is smashed. Seems pretty recent. (Pretty sure we walked by here Wednesday night and didn't see a smashed window.)
Anyway, take a look at the hole...
Oh wait.
Seems almost too perfect too be manmade. So we're going with alien. Like, an alien laser. Anyone else care to guess what happened here?
C'mon, you guys. This is important.

New era for tree house living room on First Avenue
It appears the long saga of the tree house living room is over. And a new era begins.
First, a flashback. As you will recall, there were pleas to keep the space here tidy. It didn't work. Trash piled up.
Meanwhile, the tree house living room attracted a steady stream of media coverage... such as in New York magazine's "Neighborhood News" feature...
Now, after a frustrating few months of back-and-forth... the tree house team members have opted for...
...plastic flowers.
(And there are even lights for the garden!) Anyway, we hope that there won't be a need for a "this is your garden not a trash bin" sign.

Gas station switcheroo shocker on Second Avenue: Gulf now a BP; bagels still served
Last night, we went for our usual morning bagel at the Gulf station on Second Avenue and East First Street and...
Whoa! BP!
Inside, while trying to overcharge me $1 for a fucking bottle of water, the attendant told me that the station made the switch on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, bagels are still on the menu...
But can we ever eat a BP bagel?

The actress and her adorable 6-year-old stepped out at Sundaes and Cones in the East Village, known for its offbeat flavors. The pair wore coordinated outfits — Holmes in a crimson shirt, white shorts and $795 Yves Saint Laurent wedges with a poppy motif to match Suri’s $175 Milly Minis dress.

Mulch Madness, of course
Workers dropped off a fresh batch of mulch today in Tompkins Square Park... will this tempt any pub crawlers to play King of the Mountain this weekend? (Please don't answer that...)

Even air pumps are getting fancier, more expensive in the East Village
At the Gulf Station on Second Avenue at First Street...
Before! A beat-up machine that only took quarters...
Now!
The fancy digital one that costs $1.50...

P.S.
Have you tried the bagels at Gulf? They don't look or taste as good as advertised...

The Meatball Factory opens today, puts up new mailbox
Earlier in the month, a resident who lives above the new Meatball Factory on Second Avenue and 14th Street noted that the restaurant had switched addresses.
The address of the previous tenant — the Arthur Treachers-Nathan's-Pizza Hut combo! — was 251. E. 14th St. But the Meatball Factory is using the address of the apartment building — 231 Second Ave., which caused some mail confusion ... all the Meatball Factory mail was going to the residents.
Anyway! Problem solved... the Meatball Factory put up a mail slot in the lobby of 231 Second Ave.
And thank you if you made it this far.
Oh, and The Meatball Factory opens today.

Kim Kardashian was in the East Village on Tuesday, ever so discreetly
[Zinno Park]
These photos were taken by Zinno Park at I Love East Village. For unknown reasons, Kim Kardashian and her sisterKlyde Kourtney were shopping at Healthfully Organic Market on East Fourth Street east of Second Avenue on Tuesday. It's possible that we have nothing else to say on the matter.
