There was actually space for people to sit here, normal and regular people, the Luxurites cannot permit this in Manhattan. I'm actually waiting for McDonalds on 1st @ 6th st to close next year.

Jill, there has been a bagel shop in the Bagel Boss space far longer than there has been a David's Bagels (old or new space). There have been bagel place and kosher restaurants in that block for all of the 37 years I've lived there. Sounds to me as if David's Bagels is the newcomer.

I'll suggest David's Bagels has a tolerable rent with a lease that is lengthy. And yes, bagel stores have been in the neighborhood for generations, thankfully.
I have no recollection of David's moving to a spot just doors away from a preexisting bagel store, but then again, until they moved I rarely went above 15th St except to go to the emergency room. However that wasn't the point, which was that the rumour at the time was that the landlord pushed David's out of their original space to make way for the Hot n Crusty, and yet David's survives.
Sometime during the day, the Pizza Bagel Cafe on the southeast corner of First Avenue and 14th Street closed down (they were open this morning, several readers told us) ... and there are signs saying they are closed until further notice...
The space hit the market back in February. At the time, a tipster told us that the Cafe was downsizing... with a new tenant taking the space facing First Avenue...
