Hey, that TD Bank branch anchoring the Jupiter 21 building on Second Avenue at East First Street officially opened yesterday. We walked by and were greeted by no fewer than 14 TD employees on the sidewalk offering free coffee and pastries or something pastry like. They were friendly! (But we missed the TD mascot!)
Did anyone go in to be among the first 100 visitors to receive a free gift? If so, then please let us know what the gift was!
And, as you know, the corner space was home to the Mars Bar until 2011… And, well, what the hell…

Meanwhile, some WTF variation of the Mars Bar is returning to East First Street … in a cafe-restaurant-club combo that will feature a juice bar and quinoa bowls.

So where's that fucking bank branch that's taking the former Mars Bar space?
The fucking TD Bank signage arrives at the former home of the Mars Bar
