110 Third Ave. is missing its 3


Dunno exactly when this happened. Was the 3 broken? Stolen? Has anyone checked the 3 at 123 Third Ave.?

DOH temporarily closes Mamani Pizza on Avenue A


The 99-cent pizza specialists on Avenue A near 10th Street remained closed during the weekend after a DOH visit last Wednesday. In total, there were 64 violation points... the usual — evidence of various things... Plus — "Food Protection Certificate not held by supervisor of food operations."

This sight gave us a start...

At the 'Let Them Eat Cake/Eat the Rich/ No Comfort Zone street party'

First stop tonight for John Penley and company — the Economakis Dream Mansion on East Third Street...




...then it was on to the BMW Guggenheim Lab ... where the group busted inside as the gates were closing... and LES Jewels read a poem...



Then!

Today's sign of the apocalypse


From an alarmed reader ... spotted on East 10th Street near Second Avenue earlier today ... per the reader: "I can’t even begin to guess why they were dressed like this. Honestly, they all look like they went to boarding school in Connecticut. Why are these people even drawn to the East Village?"
