Yes, that's the demolition-friendly CBGB space at far left. And yes, that's the new Chase megabranch coming to the corner of Bowery and East 2nd to the right. And yes, that's a phalanx of ChaseBots that were swarming the sidewalk around noon today, desperately seeking your deposit, which we take to mean the bank is about to open. A finer portrait of what's happened to the Bowery, we haven't yet seen. No, please, twist the knife a little more, we insist.
