Exclusive first look inside the new TD Bank coming to the former Mars Bar space

As you likely heard, the Post reported this week that a 4,300-square-foot TB Bank branch is opening in the former Mars Bar space. Now, a TB insider tells us that the branch will be modeled after the actual Mars Bar... with some former patrons working as tellers...

Here's an exclusive, hush-hush look at a training session at the branch one recent evening...

Oh, please don't boo! I'm very sensitive!

Exclusive first look inside the first Monimax 4000W wall mount ATM on the Bowery

Yesterday, we exclusively reported the exclusive that the Bowery will soon be home to a Monimax 4000W wall mount ATM, which offers unprecedented deployment flexibility while supporting a robust set of traditional ATM service offerings.

We now follow that up with the first look inside here at East Fourth Street ...

We'll let you know about the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Exclusive: The Bowery to receive its first Monimax 4000W wall mount ATM

You may have seen this hanging on the Bowery near East Fourth Street.

This. Not the headless mannequins.

EV Grieve has learned exclusively that this will soon be a real live Monimax 4000W wall mount ATM. As you probably know, the Monimax 4000W wall mount offers unprecedented deployment flexibility while supporting a robust set of traditional ATM service offerings. It is ideal for sites where real estate is at a premium, such as on the Bowery. According to Nautilus Hyosung officials, the makers of the Monimax 4000W, "the Monimax 4000W delivers total cost of ownership results in a reliable, secure platform."

Indeed.

And now you will be the first to know how to use the Monimax 4000W with this almost interactive chart.

Please note that Cincinnati Bengals fans from Phebe's will be charged a $10 service fee during game days.

We are looking forward to the fall and cooler temperatures ahead.

Hold on. What?

Oh, it's not Labor Day weekend?

Are you sure?

First look at PermaBase, opening soon on Third Avenue

Ha. Just kidding about the PermaBase. Old construction joke.

It's actually going to be a Japanese restaurant called Kotobuki here on Third Avenue near 10th Street... and we're sure their food won't taste like cement board...

7-Eleven's feeble attempt at an anti-blogger shield on the Bowery

We've heard that there is at least one local "blogger" head-scratchingly interested in the daily mundane updates at the incoming 7-Eleven on the Bowery.

To ward off attempts to document the installation of the Buffalo Chicken Roller machine and Quarter Pound Big Bite® heater, workers have placed brown paper over the front windows.

Below, we point out the weaknesses in the 7-Eleven defense plan.

Uh, hey — will someone please give me a boost?

Sadly, though ... when we took a closer look, the damn think isn't hooked up (plugged in?) yet. So you'll just have to wait for your comprehensive review.

Chalk vandals strike Tompkins Square Park ping pong table

You've been warned

Last week, we provided photographic evidence that several monsters/creatures had been spotted nesting in the area.

It's getting worse. Our friend Goggla sends along a dispatch: "They've infiltrated Spring and Sullivan...I predict more pods will hatch as the weather gets warmer."

Indeed!

Uh-oh: Someone didn't get the memo about the sign coming down
