Sad saga of Nino's Pizza 2.0 comes to an end
Yesterday morning, we noted that the new Nino's Pizza on St. Mark's Place and Avenue A had been closed (again) of late... this after extensive renovations...
And just like that ... Later yesterday, workers cleaned out the space...
...and a For Rent sign went up.
I miss the old Nino's. I liked their pizza and corny year-round Christmas decorations and fountain drinks. And it was one of my favorite spots for sitting and staring out the window, watching the East Village go by...
We didn't spot the listing online just yet...

Also. After a really, really long time, workers finally removed the sidewalk bridge here...

Silent Pro 7-Eleven collective launches shock-and-awe counter-offensive
Oh, wait.
Bwahahaha. Nice!
Updated:
To be clear, I had nothing to do with this. Just someone's idea of a gag.
The Hetal Convenience Store is now... 1 Eleven
The Hetal Convenience Store on First Avenue just south of East Seventh Street closed back in December... workers remodeled the storefront... and it recently reopened... then a new awning arrived the other day...
1 Eleven?! Kinda sounds like the name of some other convenience store, of course. The name is a play off its address, 111 First Ave.
