Gone Again

Remember that post of a couple weeks back wherein I reported that the Dean & Deluca on the southeast corner of East 11th & University Place had closed up shop -- only to re-open shortly afterwards as if nothing had happened? Well, it's gone again, and this time it looks like it's gone for good.

I was never a regular. I liked the big room on the corner (which was supposedly haunted), but it simply never occurred to me to spend any time -- much less money --  there. I was always much more of a fan of the News Bar just up the road a couple of blocks. That said, I always enjoyed the people-watching while walking by this place. Not quite sure why they've closed up shop, being that it seemed like they were doing a swift business, but who knows? Below is how it looked this morning. Empty.

This is the way things are right now. So many businesses are suffering because of this struggling economy.

I had an end of date coffee there, that's the only time I've been in. I too prefer the news bar up the street if I am ever in the 'hood.
