Ben & Jerry's Opening Soon

Long-time East Villagers will certainly remember the beloved Pinkberry that used to be on St. Mark's Place — it's almost three years since they closed!

Good news: the beloved Ben & Jerry's is moving into the same location!

Behold:

Ben & Jerry's.

We're sad that the beloved Caffé Bene is gone (that moved here after Pinkberry closed) but we rejoice that soon we'll be eating more ice cream!

Duct Tape Can Fix Anything

"My old man taught me duct tape could fix anything…"
                          —Sturges, Sanctuary Hills

The beloved Caffé Bene on St. Mark's Place seems to have taken Sturges's words to heart, that duct tape can fix anything, as could be seen this past Saturday:

Duct tape can fix anything.

Soon the tape will turn the color of the sidewalk, as pedestrians track their feet on it, and no one will even know it's there.

East Villagers love quick and dirty repairs!
