Another gut renovation for 103 Second Ave.


An EVG reader passes along word about the gut renovation going on inside 103 Second Ave. at East Sixth St., most recently home to the recently gut-renovated Vandaag, which closed back in May.

We've lost track of how many eateries have been in and out of here in just the last, oh, 15 years... and each time, there's a gut renovation, which is the EVG Keyword of the Day. No big deal. You put in a new restaurant. You gut renovate the place. Just what you have to do. Until the building falls down or something. And the Vandaagers put a lot of time and attention into the interior. And someone new comes along and starts over...

Anyway, Eater had the scoop that the address will soon be home to the first "brick and mortar location" of Mighty Quinn's, a BBQ food truck, specializing in sustainable smoked meats, favored by food truck foodies in Brooklyn.

They will open after the gut renovation.

I live in the building. Demolition began illegally Wednesday night at 6pm(!), continued until 10pm. 311 took my complaint but I doubt DEP investigated. Demo continued until 8pm Thursday. No permits posted.

Demo continued illegally after-hours on Thurs. & Fri. Not a gut renovation BTW, according to the contractor- keeping the tile wall & concrete floor, & a wall is coming down.
