ANOTHER GOODBYE TO ARCADE
Grub Street has a very nice goodbye profile of Roger Gural and Arcade Bakery, including a clever photo of a broken-hearted baguette. (Thanks to K. for the pic above of the lines literally out the door yesterday. She waited 4o minutes for her babka, but did it without a single regret. “Arcade Detox is a thing.”)

And another ode to Arcade Bakery https://ny.eater.com/2019/8/1/20750121/arcade-bakery-closing-tribeca-farewell
Does anyone know what’s going on on the roof of BMCC? My apt. faces the river & this morning with the windows shut & the AC running I was awakened at 9AM by what sounded like a cement mixer at the foot of my bed.
I’ve asked; awaiting reply.
How can we donate to Neighbors United Below Canal?
They are setting themselves up as a non-profit now, and will create a GoFundMe page. Stay tuned.
