I completely AGREE WITH THE BAN of the sidewalk cafe for Alpha Fusion whose owners have completely ignored the SLA rules for a liquor license and Community Board 4's sidewalk cafe policies ever since they have opened. As a longtime resident (over 7 years) of 360 W. 34th St. which is a large residential building facing directly across the street from Alpha, I know firsthand how the sidewalk cafe permit has been misused. For instance, Community Board 4 requires that (1) Hours of operation will be from earlier than 11 am to no later than midnight Sunday through Thursday; and from no earlier than 11 am to no later than 4 am Friday and Saturday (ignored), (2) Only soft background music not audible from outside the establishment will be played on a regular basis (blatantly ignored); (3) Doors and windows will be closed whenever amplified music is played inside as per law (ignored always). In addition, Alpha has been subject to numerous health code violations and was even forced to shut down for a lengthy period as a result (which is rare). Alpha is nothing but a overpriced, gloried Chinese take-out restaurant (which it was previously) and should not be allowed to break the rules be granted a sidewalk cafe permit.

It is outrageous for the City to take away a sidewalk permit especially when the sidewalk is extra wide and not a hindrance to pedestrians walking by.

Alpha is a great neighborhood establishment. It benefits the area and doesn't adversely impact anyone.
Cool Place

Please keep the sidewalk open for people to enjoy !! It creates a wonderful atmosphere that people look forward to!!!
Please keep that open
Sidewalk cafes are a critical component of NYC culture. Please don't take this away.
Pease keep the sidewalk cafe. It doesn't encumber pedestrian traffic and adds a nice ambience to the neighborhood.
This restaurant so dependent on that space and the customers they serve. This would be a sad lost to many people including the people Alpha employes.
Save Alpha Sidewalk cafe! food is awesome and so is the environment
