BofA Forces $1 Hot Dog Lady to Move… Again
A quick update on Eliana, the hot dog lady who had her cart seized by police last month when they kicked all the vendors off the NW corner of 43rd St. and 6th Ave. With the help of the Street Vendor Project, she got her cart back and returned to her regular spot last Monday. Sadly, on Tuesday a building manager from the Bank of American Tower (on 6th Ave. btw. 42+43rd) called and complained to the cops- who forced Eliana to move. She is now parked across 6th Ave., on the NE Corner of 43rd St., along with the other vendors who were forced to move (El Rey del Sabor and the halal cart), but is hoping at some point to return to the regular spot that she vended from with no issues for 15 years.

this is the same woman that stood on the cart and kept it stuck in the middle of the street causing a traffic jam and later a physical altercation right?
people have short memories, 15 years of nothing doesnt mean much if people saw you go crazy one month ago
