Activity at the former site of A. Fontana Shoe Repair


What's going on at the former location of the A. Fontana Shoe Repair on 10th Street past Second Avenue? The shop, there for 45 years, closed in late February. I didn't spot any workers or construction permits when I walked by...And there will be no sarcastic asides about bank branches, yogurt shops or Duane Reades. Anything is possible.
If you're new to this...Jeremiah has provided thoughtful coverage of Fontana's this past year.

  1. actually, i did get a peek in the inside and it does look like a froyo joint, or some sort of ice cream shop.
