Chico's B Cup makeover
Sea Salt still preserved
Back in March, we noted the rather eerie scene inside the former Sea Salt space on Second Avenue two-plus years after it shuttered.... workers have been puttering around inside of late ... and EV Grieve reader Alice caught a glimpse of this table... set for the ghosts of Sea Salt's past, perhaps....

At Sea Salt, the lights are still on, but no one is dining

New York is not dead!
On Saturday, the Post boldly declared that New York nightlife is not dead!
Why? Because of many new clubs... including our very own White Noise....

WHITE NOISE (225 Avenue B; 212-539-0925)
SCENE: Sexy rock chicks too young to know a lot of the ’80s tunes they’re hearing lounge about on Gothic-style furniture. Co-owners Luke Brian Sosnowski and Timothy Falzone keep Maroon 5 off the playlist, and the scene lasts very, very late. Those who remember Chelsea’s defunct rock club Snitch will dig this scene, especially when bands play surprise shows. People who look like East Villagers circa 2000 will get in easily; those who discovered the ’hood post-Starbucks may find themselves left out.
CROWD: Fashion Week saw plenty of wayward models and late-night stragglers coming from events like the John Varvatos/Original Moonshine whiskey launch party.
BOOZE: A bottle of Stoli is $350, but rarely ordered and not a ticket for admission. The specialty cocktail is a $9 Jack Daniel’s honeycomb lemon mix. Beers range from $4 to $7.
PROS: Has the potential to get trippy and wild.
CONS: First-time operators may struggle to maintain control.

East Village room not meant for large coaches
Speaking of typos...
Via Streeteasy:
So, this implies that I'd have no room for my Rex Ryan?

Large room for rent in a Prime East Village Townhouse. Easily fit a queen size bed, small coach & entertainment unit.

East Village Finest Deli is now open
Here on Avenue B and Fourth Street at the former home of Finest Pizza and Deli ... looks pretty good to me, and better then the pizza before it...

Pedestrian struck by Cadillac on Third Avenue
Vautrin, a photographer whose work we have published here before, sent along these photos. As Vautrin notes, last night at 9:09, a Cadillac sedan turning from 8th Street/Astor Place onto Third Avenue struck a pedestrian in the crosswalk. Police arrived in due course. Ambulance from Beth Israel arrived very promptly. From the photo, the pedestrian appears to have suffered a lower right leg/ankle/foot injury. And the smile on the face of the ambulance attendant in the last photo may be taken as a relatively favorable sign.

Sticker art prompting pro-con Islamic center debate
You've probably seen this stickers on the northern stretch of Avenue A and on 14th Street... it's an attempt to promote some pro-con discussion about the mosque/community center that apparently has been in the news lately....
So... how's it going so far....?
Hmmm....

Abandoned wig on Seventh Street and Avenue B. If you can prove that it's yours, then you can come by to pick it up. Just providing a community service.
