Condolence - NYC is mourning! Gray's Papay is gone!

New York waked mourning up 2 weeks ago. Some of its colors simply disappeared. As LCD Soundsystem predicted, New York I Love You but you are bringing me down (...) when you are shutting your stores...

Papaya's Dog shut down its doors due to problems with its landlord of its location @ 37th Street.

It is worth to remember that the store at 37/8 was it most famous one(!).

Gray's Papaya no longer lives on the corner of 37th and 8th

Sad...

According to NY Eater, which talked to a worker in the West Village location, "it was a rent issue and that it doesn't make sense to continue with a landlord who's charging more than anyone else in the area. They plan to reopen soon in one of three possible new Midtown locations."

Let's hope and pray.  In the meanwhile I will need to find another place to make a drunk pit stop between a bar/club and my apartment.

ps - the other two locations of Gray's Papaya are still open!!
