Was it just Saturday that we were gazing upon the Hotel Le Bleu nestled between the taxi depot and the dialysis facility on Fourth Avenue, thinking that it would be open in a matter of a few days. Well, newyorkology has temporarily burst our bubble by reporting that opening day has been kicked by one week to July 16. Even worse, though, newyorkology found that the Jetsons-like restaurant called Vue with a rooftop indoor/outdoor Manhattan-facing restaurant and bar won’t be open until fall. And, there, in one fell swoop goes our vision of dining at an outdoor table while gazing at Manhattan in the distance and the Gowanus nearby. C’est triste, no?

Merde!
