Lower East Side arts collective ABC No Rio has gotten an anonymous $1 million donation to help with the reconstruction of its 156 Rivington Street building. That rebuilding is expected to cost $2.4 million, and the collective has already gotten enough funding for the first phase from politicians and the anonymous donor. ABC No Rio's efforts to send a thank-you note were foiled by the donor's anonymity, so donor, if you're out there, the anarchists of the Lower East Side are very grateful. [Villager; previously]
