Apotheke’s Trash Disposal Irks Neighbors

| Leave a comment

Over the weekend, we fielded some correspondence from a concerned resident within the Doyers Street environs regarding improper garbage disposal by controversial nightspot Apotheke and its sister Pulqueria.  Trash troubles have reportedly been an ongoing problem for at least the last six months.  Yet another reason many neighbors are not pleased with their presence here at number 9.

Apparently, there is quite a bit of concern that Apotheke has been illegally disposing their garbage, dumping it at the foot of the post office branch across the street.  We are told that “some guy” arrives each night with a rolling dumpster to take the piles away, and reportedly rolls it “down to the projects (most likely the Smith Houses).”

Sometimes, however, this guy misses a day or two, and the photos included here illustrate the results of his no-show.  There are spent limes, flowers, and other fruit bits littered across Doyers, making the streets nastier.

Our tipster speculates that Apotheke might not possess a license with the Business Integrity Commission (“BIC”).
