New life for old deli on First Avenue

The deli over on First Avenue near St. Mark's Place was closed on Monday...


...and yesterday, the plywood and workers arrived. These days, you can't help but think it will become a 7-Eleven or something. However, workers on the scene told EVG regular William Klayer, who took the photo below, that the same owners were renovating the space...


Our friends at East Village Wines next door confirmed this as well...

Will be curious to see how the spruce up the place...

  1. That place gave me the itchies just to walk past it. It looked filthy and infested and I wouldn't have bought anything there if you paid me.
