Storm damage at the Tompkins Square Park dog run
EV Grieve reader Allen Semanco passes along these photos showing last night's storm damage ...
Meanwhile, no word yet on these limbs.

Meanwhile, on 38th Street...
Dave on 7th was on 38th Street earlier... where he figured there must be some logical reason why somebody put this meter in the middle of the sidewalk.
Fab 5 Freddie told me...
EV Grieve reader Pedro happened by Gallery 151 at 350 Bowery Wednesday night where Fab 5 Freddy was debuting his month-long art show titled "New York:New Work."
And Fab 5 Freddy was out front speaking with friends and fans...
BoweryBoogie has more on the show here.

Why people will be running and eating pizza and stuff tomorrow in Tompkins Square Park
Oh, tomorrow marks the second annual NYC Pizza Run at Tompkins Square Park. Ninety runners, uh, run 2.25 miles, stopping at three checkpoints to eat slices of pizza.
If you want to take part, you're too late. It's booked.
If you want to take pictures of runners throwing up pizza, then please send them to our friends at EV Heave.
You can find more info here.
The former Café Charbon will become a sports bar 'with an emphasis on value'
As we reported from the CB3/SLA meeting back in January, the team behind The Stumble Inn, Off the Wagon, Gin Mill, Jake's Dilemma, Down the Hatch and The 13th Step are taking over Café Charbon on the corner of Orchard and Stanton Streets. The CB3/SLA committee unanimously approved the transfer.
Yesterday, BoweryBoogie noted that Café Charbon is now closed.
The new owners provided a few details about their plans for the space during the January CB3/SLA meeting: It will be a full-service tavern open from 11:30 a.m. to 4 a.m. The French doors will close at 10 p.m. There will be $1 drafts at happy hour, a private party room and DJs on occasion (no dancing, though).
Yesterday, we asked Michael Asch, one of the two senior co-owners of the 13th Step and its sibling bars, for more about their plans for the former Café Charbon.
They hope to be open in September or October after "a face lift."
"We will be a sports bar, pub and grill, serving burgers, salads, sandwiches, etc., with an emphasis on value — both on the food as well as liquor," he said.
And how about a name, given the ruckus about the 13th Step?
"We are also planning to be sensitive to to the community as far as a name is concerned," he said.
