In a post last month, I wondered what was happening at 92 E. 7th St., in what used to be the garden dining area of the Miracle Grill.
Jeremiah has the not-so-surprising answer at Curbed, where he's a guest editor this week. (Hint: it has six stories and eight units....the new condo, not Jeremiah!)

EV Grieve is starting to take photos of sunsets and stuff
Can a record of John Tesh covers be far behind?

The French-Carribbean place taking over the space that belonged to Bao 111 on Avenue C now has a name...Arcane.
How we began to [heart] New York
Here, a high school student looks at the origins of the "I [heart] New York campaign. I give her a B- for her project. She seemed to have problems reading the cue cards.

No fun? (Hardly): Iggy and the Stooges at Terminal 5
Iggy and the Stooges played last night at a sold-out Terminal 5, that place on the west side on 56th Street and, oh, Weehawken. I'm not much of a concert reviewer...so. About all I can muster at the moment is that it was a great show. And Iggy was probably having more fun than anyone else in the place. He never stood in one place more than four seconds. Per usual, he invited everyone on stage during "No Fun." Here's a snippet of the song that I filmed:
Zeronea shot this footage of "I Wanna be Your Dog," where we lose the former Christodora House resident in the crowd for a minute.
And here's a link to a Stooges clip from 1970...love the local broadcaster trying to make sense of it all...
(By the way, as you may have read, the band had their gear ripped off in Montreal on Monday. It hasn't been recovered.)

Life on Mars Monday
On 7th Street and Second Avenue. Another TV shoot to screw things up. And. Life On Mars?
I prefer this version of Life on Mars...

Paying homage to Joan Crawford on Avenue A
Another item from Eater:
The PR behind the new project in the old Julep space, writes in with an update: "This September owners Josh Boyd, Darren Rubell and Jordan Boyd (owners of Plan B and Gallery Bar) launch what they call the LEV's (Lower East Village) first piano bar and cocktail lounge....Varney designed the late Joan Crawford's homes and dedicates the space to her."
LEV?
A bartender at the Library told me a piano bar was opening in the old Julep space on Avenue A. I honestly thought she was joking, though.
