As I was taking my daughter to school this morning, I looked out the window of the bus going up Third Avenue, only to spy that, evidently, Gothic Cabinet Craft -- the longstanding wood furniture supplier on East 13th street (as immortalized in 1976's "Taxi Driver," above) has closed up shop.
Had it not been for Gothic and Surprise Surprise across the street (also gone, replaced by a Basics Plus), my first apartment on East 12th Street would have been largely bereft of anything to sit on, put clothes in or eat off of.
This made me incredibly sad.
