Make yourself at home on a First Avenue Refuge Island
First Avenue and 12th Street the other evening. This photo is courtesy of @marakaufman, who notes, "I'm excited the refuge islands are getting a home-y touch." Ha! Agreed!
All you need is cash on East Sixth Street
At $269,000, this two-room studio on East Sixth Street is one of the least-expensive homes on the market. (And the seller reduced the price by 10 percent last week...)
Here's the listing ... do those last three words give you pause?

East Village charmer! This lovely two-room studio has been recently renovated and boasts a modern kitchenette with a Gaggenau range, and cheerful custom bath with yellow and white penny tile. Classic prewar details include original pressed-tin ceilings, exposed brick and exposed beams. The layout of this studio is very functional, with sliding doors separating the sleeping quaters from the front of the apartment. Great light and open city views make this well-worth the walk up to the fifth floor! CASH BUYERS ONLY
East Village eatery odds-and-ends: Porsena progress on Seventh; new cafe for Avenue C?
Just noting the progress of Porchetta chef Sara Jenkins' new eatery on Seventh Street... will be called Porsena.
Looks as if a new coffee shop/pressed-sandwich-kinda-cafe is opening on Avenue C at the former Rico hookah joint next to C-squat.
East Village Feed brings word of a new tea shop opening on 10th Street near First Avenue... at the site of the former Vinyl Market... this brings the number of places for tea in the East Village to 3,459.

The urban pumpkin patch
I've noticed that a lot of people have been taking this photo on St. Mark's Place...and I can see why...

A chivalrous cyclist
From Craigslist:
Bicyclist Saves Girl w. Luggage - w4m - 24 (East Village)
A thank you to the nice man in a gray hoodie and red scarf who used his bicycle to block me from the angry homeless man outside my building as I struggled to get my luggage through the door.
Let the weary traveler buy you a drink?

...still counting
Tomorrow is the last day to view "...still counting" at the Michael Mut Gallery at 97 Avenue C near Seventh Street.
Per the website:
"…still counting…" is Mr. Mut's continued expression of hope for peace and transformation of humanity. Since the devastating incidents of 9/11, the ongoing reports of death in Iraq and Afghanistan, the constant presence of killing in the media and entertainment, Mut has taken his deep feelings of sadness and crafted this unique and haunting artistic expression.
Who's going to the bike lane protest?
The bike lane/etc protest is at 5 today at 14th Street and First Avenue.... Looks like EV Grieve will be stuck at work... so if anyone happens to be there and wants to file a brief report... we'd very much appreciate that....grieve98@gmail.com
Tearful anniversaries: A look back at the EV Lambo
First, press play. (Or not.)
Was just about this time last week in which the world was introduced to the EV Lambo...
[EV Grieve reader Joe]
It brought immediate media attention. (Daily Intel ... Runnin' Scared) ...
And we saw the birth of @EVLambo.
We fought. We flirted. We fell in love.
And now. Nothing. Like A-ha, we've hunted high and low for the EV Lambo.... nothing.
We've had our hopes crushed. We saw a flash of orange by the Mars Bar... and we ran! Ran until our legs were bloody stumps a few feet away... Crushed, like an orange. A different orange sporty car!
Oh, just that other orange sporty car.
