Anyone notice the big orange STOP WORK sticker on the door of the Gratto? Is this a village sticker (can't read the small writing while I drive by) ordering the stoppage? If you are walking by or can actually read it while driving by, please post up.

I walked by in the early evening on Jan 13 and the sticker was there, whilst some carpenters worked away inside.
It was issued by the Village building dept, and had something to do w/ "work w/o permit" or "work not on approved plans" or similar. Sorry don't recall exactly.

Who is this J.R.B. guy? How did you just show up all of a sudden and have almost 13,000 posts? How did you get Clam's avatar? What have you done with clam? If you've replaced him are you nicer?

Noticed they removed only a select few of the FIGO decals, put up some new gold border decals with some words, hours, etc., and cleaned all the windows. Looks as if they are going to retain the Figo name, does anyone know? If so, first misstep IMO.
Yes, it looks as if it is etched onto the outside surface. What is odd is that they added "new" decals to the corner window around one of the "Figo"s. Why would you do if you were taking down the window? Unless the installer screwed up. Replacing those 5 panes is worth getting rid of the name.
Wow, the place looks absolutley terrific. They even got pics of Dino and Sinatra in the joint - much like another place in town I know. When are they scheduled to open?
