Seen & Heard: Hobby Lobby construction happening?
HOBBY LOBBY CONSTRUCTION?
A. noticed that someone has put a door in the plywood wall that was covering the entrance to the old Bed, Bath & Beyond. I have a note out to the Hobby Lobby press office to see if they are under construction in there…
BEARD PAPA’S COMING TO FIDI
N. caught the news: Beard Papa’s, the giant international chain of…cream puffs is opening its third NYC location at 29 John on Nov. 16. The cream puffs have a double-layered puff–choux on the inside, and pie crust on the outside. The filling is made with a mixture of whipped and vanilla bean custard cream, and also comes in chocolate and matcha. There’s currently a location on 53rd and St. Mark’s.
FLASHING BACK WITH JANE FREEMAN
Longtime Tribecan Jane Freeman sent me photos of the neighborhood taken in the 1980s and ’90s, on our quest to find a picture of 317 Greenwich. And along with it she found this shot of Dudley’s Paw, which was at 325 Greenwich for 27 years until 2019, as well as the diorama she created for Yvonne Fox’s store one Thanksgiving. “It was a feast for turkeys and other animals,” Jane said. “I also did a diorama of the entire store inside and out, which Yvonne Fox has.”

Hobby Lobby uses notions of religious freedom to disguise their bigotry toward women and people of color. There are other places to buy arts and crafts supplies including:
SoHo Art Materials – 3 Wooster Street
Blick – 443 Broadway
Scrap Yard NYC – 300 Broadway
Paper Source – 211 West Broadway
Target
and many online sources
Words cannot express how much I miss the Barnes & Noble
I miss Barnes and Nobles.
I miss sending faxes instead of email.
I despise Hobby Lobby and there will be no mention of it on FiDi Fan Page. I’m hoping it fails miserably.
