On one recent November day, we noticed a sign hanging from the former home of the Amato Opera on the Bowery.
Perhaps a clue to the new tenant?!
Nope. Just a letter from the Bureau of Fire Prevention Inspectors. They need to inspect the air conditioning unit, which seemed to be working OK when the Amato Opera closed in May.

Speaking of canopies...
Have always been curious about the beauty parlor on 14th Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue... Always wondered if they knew about the salon/saloon mistake on the sign...
Did the sign company make the mistake or the salon/saloon owners figured what the hell? Or maybe the salon/saloon owners didn't notice? Or maybe they want to nab any lost people looking for the Beauty Bar up the street...

Belgian Ale House crazy enough for "crazy landlord"
Remember that "crazy landlord" sign on the corner of Third Street and Second Avenue that we told you about back in March?
Thanks to an EV Grieve reader who sent along the following shot... we now know who was just crazy enough to take over this long-vacated space...The Belgian Ale House.
This will just be one of many items to be addressed on Sept. 14 in what promises to be an EPIC SLA & DCA Licensing Committee meeting.
P.S.
On Sunday, the corner served again as a makeshift flea market...

Thinking about the future
I took this photo about three weeks ago on Avenue A between 13th Street and 14th Street. I didn't think much of it at the time. It looks like a homemade sign. And it's hanging in front of a former beauty salon.
Now, after the shootings that killed Eric "Taz" Pagan one block away, I can't help but look at the sign differently.

When it gets down to five seconds, very calmly START RUNNING
Thanks to EV Grieve reader dianeb for passing along the following shots of the fancy new walk-don't walk signs at 14th Street and Third Avenue...
As she noted, "Kind of cute, letting you know how much time you have until you're squashed by a truck."

What Koi needs on the Bowery
Fresh graffiti on the old Koi notice on the Bowery. And the second part is difficult to make out. Soporific?
