Former Pourt space for lease on Cooper Square
Pourt, the cafe-work space at 35 Cooper Square, closed at the end of November after 11 months in business.
The for lease sign is now up in the window here in the base of the Marymount Manhattan College dormitory at Sixth Street. ... though the listing isn't online just yet at the RKF website.
The eventual new tenant will have a dessert shop as a neighbor. Meet Fresh, a Taiwan-based chain, will be opening soon next door.

And how was your New Year's Eve?
Derek Berg spotted the above remnants, including playing cards and a bra, on Seventh Street ... and below, on Second Avenue, a discarded New Year's hat surrounded by what appears to be dried blood...
2nd Avenue cab crash
Derek Berg came across this scene this morning just before 8 on Second Avenue at St. Mark's Place... unfortunately, we don't know what caused the cab driver to crash into the curb and send the trash can toward Gem Spa's entrance...
No one was injured... and thankfully this didn't happen at 8 a.m. on a non-holiday Monday...
Ending 2017 with a pronghorn discovery on 12th Street
An EVG reader spotted this between Avenue A and First Avenue... and it quickly found a new home with Matilda...

Happy 2018 from Ray
And happy birth month to Ray, as the proprietor of Ray's Candy Store at 113 Avenue A will be 85 on Jan. 25.
Thanks to Rainer Turim for the photo!

Our Happy New Year
Our Happy New Year
We awaken from one year into
another, will there ever be rest?
What are we going to do,
with this new blank slate.
Can we find it within, to do,
all we have promised ourselves,
Or will we leave our promises,
For another time, another year.
Make this the year of moving,
Forward with our dreams,
Why not, let’s make some,
Good news for a change,
If you have no dreams,
Help someone who does.
Let us bring joy back.
