sign o' the times...

Everyone knows I have major closure issues whenever one of my favorite places in the city closes. In the past few weeks, I've had the following discoveries of closings or soon to be closings in New York:

KIRARA SUSHI
CHEYENNE DINER
CAFE LE FIGARO
BARNES AND NOBLE CHELSEA
VIRGIN TIMES SQUARE
TOYS R US TIMES SQUARE

If those last three can't pay the rent in this god-forsaken town, what the hell's going in their place?

Only Jeremiah's Vanishing New York knows for sure. Check out his site some time to lament with the best of us.
