'Food use OK' at former First Avenue video-computer store

The weird-cool little Intervideo Electronics store on First Avenue near Sixth Street closed earlier in the summer... And now, "for lease" signs have gone up here...


We took a look at the listing. The rent isn't listed. However, take a look at the ad... Espresso City? With wi-fi!


By listing "Caracas Arepa Bar, Luke's Lobster Bar, Porchetta NYC, Pylos ... and Cafe Mogador," they're certainly gunning for more upscale food...No mention of Restaurant (Turnover) Row across the street...

  1. And no mention of next door neighbor McDonalds.

  2. Or the Dunkin' Donuts on the corner!

  3. How about listing "Caracus[sic] Arepa Bar" as a neighbor? When did Luke's Lobster add Bar to their name? And it's simply Porchetta, not "Porcheta[sic] NYC".
