Okay, when I started reading this post about Birdbath taking over the old Vesuvio Bakery space, I almost cried- but when I read a little further down and learned that out of respect for this iconic 89 year old New York City Bakery, Birdbath {a green bakery} kept the entire facade intact {including signage!!} my frown turned into a huge smile!  Bravo Birdbath!!

{A vintage postcard of Vesuvio!  Now really, how many bakeries get their own postcard? If you don’t live in NYC, you may still recognize this storefront- it’s been included in many fashion shoots over the years.  Image from here.}
