[Weekend recap] NYPD cites two bars for 'illegal sale of alcoholic beverages'

We first posted this on Saturday morning... kind of got lost with all the dog costume photos...

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... "restraining order" says for "illegal sale of alcoholic beverages."

...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...?

At the Rally to Stop Police Brutality

Yesterday marked the 16th Annual National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality ... the peaceful rally/protest started at Union Square ... Bobby Williams picked up the route in Tompkins Square Park... then down East Eighth Street ... Avenue C and Avenue D... We don't have an exact number of people who were marching ... almost seemed as if there were equal numbers of the NYPD ...

EV Grieve reader Kirk sends along a few more shots from the 16th Annual National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality yesterday... from Avenue D....

... and two photos showing the police presence on the rooftops of the Lillian Wald Houses...

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.
