Why there's a dining room set in the middle of Avenue B

Crews arrived early this morning for a shoot on 10th Street and Avenue B... a crew member said it's a short film titled "1956" ...

The NYPD is redirecting traffic on Avenue B ... several motorists have been grumbling ... (Avenue C is closed between Sixth Street and 12th Street for the Loisaida Festival ... so apparently driving and parking is a bit of a hassle for the time being. More of a hassle than usual...)

Anyway! Here's the street set...

...and as is customary, someone needs to be passed out asleep on the film set...

The Penistrator strikes a Banana Republic ad on First Avenue near 12th Street...

Today in photos of a pile of raw chicken on Avenue B

From farm to sidewalk? Several readers have noted this at East Third Street. Via EVG reader Steven...

Given the temperature, the chicken should be ready to turn in about 15 minutes.

Cat found!

Nice to see a cat found instead of lost...
