Cooper Square Hotel still tagged
The Cooper Square Hotel fence was tagged Friday night/Saturday morning...
Yesterday!
I was actually a little surprised to see the tag still there today...
Back in May, the Cooper Hotel staff quickly removed a tag... Or is this part of the hotel's new art installation?

Swarms and snow

Kmart beats Duane Reade to the next holiday
In an important news item from yesterday, we noted that Duane Reade already put out their Valentine's Day goods.
Well! EV Grieve reader Anthony sent along this photo taken on Dec. 27 outside everyone's favorite mass merchandising company on Astor Place...

Last night outside Le Souk
There was another nice party coming from the bowels of the former Le Souk space early this morning on Avenue B....
The evening also included a few fistfights. Per a resident, the bouncers at Le Souk kept yelling "Take it down the block, folks, just don't do it here." The door seemed to open at 1 am, and close around 4 or 5.
Meanwhile, the oddsmakers now say chances for a New Year's Eve party here are 3/1.

NYC mayor inspects snow-covered streets in expensive gray pinstripe suit
A little gratuitous Bloomberg bashing, if you will
As always, way to relate to the people, Mr. Mayor!
The bikes of East 11 Street sneer at the 8th St upstart
Oh boy. I was afraid of this. The other day, I interviewed the bike that lives on Avenue C and Eighth Street, which became an iconic symbol of the great blizzard of Dec. 26-27, 2010.
I figured the Getty photo by Mario Tama would trigger some jealousy among other bikes in the neighborhood. But nothing like what you'll about to read. (I wish that they could just be happy for her.)
EV Grieve reader Lisa passes along these photos ... and a message:
We, the Buried Bikes of 11th and A, hereby challenge 8th and C to a showdown — um, throwdown — er, snowdown! Bring it on!
I just wish that we could all get along.

Duane Reade continues to make people feel as if they're behind
Really? Valentine's Day? You heartless bastards!
We just got done buying people a few things for this past holiday... We need to relax now, catch our breath, binge drink, etc. I'll go in on Feb. 10 for some Whitman's Samplers for Valentine's Day and you'll have your stupid Easter candy out!
