The 9th Precinct is hosting its annual children's holiday party today on East Fifth Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue. (Happening snow or shine?)
The Claus clan will there... as well as refreshments and entertainment
Back on June 17, we pointed out that an Italian restaurant called Tre Scalini was taking over the former Bello's space at 130 St. Mark's Place near Avenue A.
I meant to note when they opened... If I had to guess, then I'd say they opened around July 1... During the weekend of July 8, I spotted this sign...
I walked by a few times and never saw anyone inside, save the owner and a worker or two. I last saw it open on July 10. I've walked by every day since then. It has not been open in the past 10 days.
If this is all true, then it was probably a good idea that they never changed the awning from the previous tenant.
They weren't even open long enough to merit a Yelp review.
Be transported to another era. Our bar features 6 varieties of wines on tap including prosecco. #nyc #bar pic.twitter.com/ZiQdzHx0s2

A doorman for The Ludlow Hotel became so incensed Friday evening when a taxi driver refused to accept passengers that he punched the driver repeatedly in the face, trashed his phone, then unceremoniously quit his job by fleeing the scene.
