- Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: serious assault in a school in Hudson Square, pursuit/police car crash in the Bronx, and an all hands "suspicious fire" on Warren Street and 5th Avenue in Park Slope (pictured above).
- Weiner for Mayor? We kind of like the sound of that.
- New in LES: a ping-pong parlor with a single table. New on the internet: a weblog that covers ping-pong parlors in LES.
- A development at Park Slope's mystery mansion: scaffolding!
- Finally! Groundbreaking for the Second Avenue subway has been scheduled for April 12th.

- The New York Archdiocese is reopening St. Joseph's in Greenwich Village-- tuition is going up 900%-- from $2500 to $25000. Parents of former students are not pleased.





That fire is suspiciously awesome.
That's Fifth and Baltic, not 5th and Warren. I live half a block from there and must be a really sound sleeper because I had no idea this had happened until I saw it in daylight today.
holy shit i used to live next door, above the lottery banner! everything smelled like chinese food, i can only imagine what it smells like now.
Mayor Weiner!
Let's be frank...this is going to inspire a lot of jokes.
And I bet he can also roast his opponents!
Why would you like the sound of Mayor Weiner? Oh, I just said it out loud. Holy crap that's funny
