8,000 firemen showed up today to help one woman out of The Muhlenberg. The building did not appear to be on fire or smoking. However, 25 firetrucks were sure to take up all of the right lane between 4th Ave and Nevins st on Atlantic Ave. None of the firemen seems to mind the flames on the side of Hank’s.

We live very close to Ace Liquors. So, when it closed we were pretty sad. However, the hopes of something cool opening up was in our minds. Yesterday, we saw the new sign which is probably more depressing than the closure of Ace Liquors. The terribly lame, misplaced, weird pharmacy on Nevins seems to be expanding and/or taking over the ex-Ace Liquors store front. There’s a Walgreen’s 1 block away. I’m still stumped how Ace went out of business in this neighborhood…
