* Now this is great news: The MTA may bring back double-decker buses, a commuting treat not enjoyed by New Yorkers (well, except tourists on those red buses) since the 1970s. [City Room] (More on this on amNY.com later today)
* Sure, demolition work has been stopped at the Ward bakery in the Atlantic Yards zone, but it's too late anyway for the noble structure. [Brownstoner]
* Another low-rise corner is felled, this time at East 14th Street and Third Avenue. [Jeremiah's Vanishing New York]
* A visit to Defonte's, an old-school holdout in Red Hook. It's worth a visit just to savor a 1970s ad influenced by a certain Alka Seltzer campaign. [Lost City]
* It's anchors way -- again -- at Channel 2. [Gothamist]
* The Unisphere has a new resident. [Queens Crap]
* A portion of Bed-Stuy may get the historic-district treatment. [Brownstoner]
* Thanks to a recent demolition, we can now take in a "generous view" of St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church downtown. [City Room]
* Jackson Heights' beloved Scrabble sign is missing, just as the board game celebrates its 60th birthday. [Jackson Heights Life]
