We are working hard at getting Controlled Chaos Fun Park up and running in the old Hardage-Giddens funeral home at 729 Edgewood Ave in Murray Hill. Shooting for June.

Busy times!

I think the Butt Hut was DOA.  The building is now unbranded and painted black.

Wafflecone opens this Saturday and I believe Mixed Fillings will open any day now.

I drove past that building on Saturday and it was absolutely packed.  Not sure what it is, but it was popular.

Taverna Oceana in San Marco (former Pure Barre location in the square) is now taking reservations. Currently, doing a soft opening at the moment but they'll be fully open by next week.

The entire building is having a mural painted that wraps the building, and currently includes a Butt Hutt logo- including a portrait of his wife, who passed away last year after battling cancer for many years.

He has been working on the building during the day, and has been parking the truck outside serving in the evenings.  It is not DOA by any stretch.

The artist who is working on the art & painted the mural of Betsy Bander, is JennVealArt on Instagram. Betsy was a friend of mine since middle school and I'm still broken up from her passing. She lost her battle with breast cancer, but my god did she fight. Jenn is like a little sister that I've known for over 20+ years and it fills me with so much joy to have seen her grow into the artist she is today.

Jen is a great artist and past student of our. Awesome to hear.
