Oh Boy. made a splashy debut last week, as did the new wine bar Lise and Vito. Tar Pit Coffee closes and rebrands as Larry’s Cà Phê. Sadly, the long-awaited Cutlets was never able to open in Williamsburg, despite having signage for well over a year.

Some big names came to our little corner of NYC this past week with the LadyLand music festival. Cleanup of the NuHart Superfund site is making progress.
