Hipsters Rejoice: Rompers for All!

By Bwog Staff on Aug 15, 2010 21 Comments

That’s right, Urban Outfitters has officially landed in the Upper West Side–on Broadway near 100th street. It’s still above 96th. That means it’s close! This is sure to give the 110th-based American Apparel a run for its money in the formerly uncontested onesie/bodysuit market (Playboy Bunny costume sales from Ricky’s don’t count). But if you were […]

It Glitters!

Mel’s Burger Bar is coming along quite nicely. And more Morningside dining news: Kuti’s, a new takeout store on 116th between Morningside and Manhattan Avenues, just got a good review from the Times. Bwog sampled the shrimp piri-piri and it is delicious, and just $7 for a plate of shrimp and two sides. Most dishes […]

Morningside Heights Is The Nexus Of Technology

By Bwog Staff on Aug 04, 2010 56 Comments

The MTA has no money, but is using its no-money to make these little robot machines called subway indicators all along the 1 line (that’s the “red line” to you, Class of 2014) this summer. Until they actually take away Unlimited Metrocards, we’re not complaining, because this is a fantastic device that allows you to […]

Morningside Heights Is A Den Of Filth

By Bwog Staff on Aug 03, 2010 67 Comments

The Health Department is, as of this summer, requiring that every restaurant in New York display the letter grades they most recently received for cleanliness. This is a nightmare for everyone; it’s rare that any restaurant will sneak away with no health violations. The grades will be assigned during the next year, when the Health […]

It’s August, and the countdown has begun. School will, one day not so far from today, start again, and you will need new underwear for the new semester. More bad news: we, Columbia’s undergraduate population, the very fiber of our school, have failed again in taking steps to increase campus pride, foster any sense of conventional collegiate […]
