Mobile crane crew arrives to delab the BMW Guggenheim Lab

A crew arrived around 9 this morning to begin delabbing the BMW Guggenheim Lab... They're just getting started... so you have plenty of time to swing by and watch....

As of 9:25 or so, the delabbing didn't have any noticeable effect on the Prune brunch line... Prune opens at 10.

NYPD cites two East Village bars last night

Multiple readers sent along word that the Undercover/Underage Patrol was out in full force last night...

There's a "closed by court order" sign at Bar 81 on Seventh Street...

...and a "restraining order" and a whole bunch of legalese papers on U2 (or 2U) Karaoke on St. Mark's Place... for "illegal sale of alcoholic beverages."

Know of any other bars that the NYPD cited last night...?

NYPD pulls over cyclist this morning on the Bowery

We've reported on cyclists who received tickets for blowing through red lights... (like here)...

This morning, the NYPD pulled over this fellow at First Street on the Bowery... Word is he zipped through the intersection at Houston and the Bowery without stopping for the light...

We stood around awkwardly for an awkwardly long time (how long can you pretend to look at Steven Tyler's clothing line?) to see if the officers would write him a ticket... we left when our cover was blown... Don't look at the camera! Stay in character!
