Besides saying that she supports the Beatrice Inn (run by her brother Paul), actress Chloe Sevigny discussed the East Village with the Observer (while hosting a party for Kiehl's) last week. She summed up how the neighborhood has changed, "Oh, you know, it's bank, nail salon, bank, nail salon, bank, nail salon. The Subway across the street from Veselka, it's just an eyesore. The bigger chains coming in everywhere, it's depressing. You know what really bugs me about the neighborhood, actually? The students! The N.Y.U. kids and they've opened an SVA dorm near my house, so now it's even more." The Big Love wife says that if she did move from the EV, she'd go back to Gramercy Park. [Via EV Grieve]
