According to the tipster who sent in the top photo, the bagel store at 55 5th Avenue in Park Slope, which was initially to be named Arena Bagels before the Ratnerian associations began eliciting snarls from passersby during construction, is scheduled to open today under the new name A.R.E.A. Bagels and Bialys. (Evidently Brooklyn Slim’s, which the owner originally told The Brooklyn Paper he might use, didn’t make the cut). As for the periods in the name, your guess is as good as ours. The bigger question, however, will be how this place will do against Bergen Bagels. What do you think?

by the time ay is built years from now i’ll own a 2 bedroom outright.
and i’m not nearly as afraid of ay as you seem to be. i’m quite happy with it.
i love your sense of logic that the hundreds of thousands of dollars i’ve made will make me somehow worse off than the tens of thousands you pay in rent every year. care to explain that? my mortgage payment is less than 1400 a month for a 1 bedroom in park slope.
what’s your rent?

bought studio in 2004: 80K.

“Maybe not off your back, but you can expect your property values to take a pretty good hit.”
and you know where i live, how?? or do you make it a habit to talk with authority about people you know nothing about?
has there been a mass exodus of moronic posters from curbed lately?
you’re a child, 1:18.
enjoy a life filled with sitting in front of the tv stewing about how much ay is going to ruin your life.
no skin off my back.
