I was just talking about it yesterday, saying that the EV used to have so much character and charm (relatively recently!)because a shopowner could have a shop that was simply fresh eggs, milk, butter and coffee and still manage to make a living here and stick around because no massive investment groups and mega-developers were looking to snatch up all the property by paying their way into anything they wanted. We're losing NYC, people. Please shop local and independent; save whatever still remains.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-14895709934823148892014-09-19T20:39:04.677-04:002014-09-19T20:39:04.677-04:00My ex-boyfriend, now late ex-boyfriend, lived upst...My ex-boyfriend, now late ex-boyfriend, lived upstairs on the fourth floor, and he too was named David. A coincidence? I wonder. I seem to remember a wonderful pottery shop called Sexwick Pottery, in that building or perhaps next door...run by potters Leif Wicklund and Barbara Sexton, some of whose pieces are now in the Smithsonian. And some of which I have. They closed the shop in the 70's and moved their wares to Mad Monk on 6th Avenue and 12th, until that place too closed...absolutely gorgeous stuff.HippieChicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-42923175438450472732008-10-21T11:48:00.000-04:002008-10-21T11:48:00.000-04:00where is the shoe repair chain store?

There is a nice stretch of small businesses on Bleecker between Broadway and Lafayette including an old cigar store (with Optimo sign), shoe repair store, closed Chinese takeout, photo store and a fine Two Boots. Centrally located for all your average human needs!Ken Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100185198750536244noreply@blogger.com
