Going through the roof at East Village Farms

A reader notes a little activity at the now-shuttered East Village Farms on Avenue today... a few people were at the scene along with a box truck... The roll-up door on the south side of the former grocery was open ... Looks like the roof is coming down... or came down...




And is this the owner, Mr. Park?


The city disapproved the first round of plans to renovate the space, including adding a "dwelling unit" and roof garden on upper floors.
