Former Milo Printing space becoming a gelato shop on Avenue A


EVG regular dwg notes that signage for Casa Gusto, a gelato shop, is now up at 199 Avenue A near East 12th Street, site of the former Milo Printing.

Meanwhile, next door, the former Furry Land Pet Supplies space has been chopped in half. Taking one side: a hair salon.


Plans for a wine bar in the whole space were shot down this past summer.

  1. Happy to see some new businesses other than bars land on the strip.

  2. The residents on Avenue A and the surrounding blocks have worked hard to stop the proliferation of licenses in this neck of the woods. We now have Ben's Barbers and an audio store to name a few. This shows that if people organize to fight these things, and it takes a great deal of work, we might be able to stop the non-stop onslaught of nightlife.

  5. I'll take a hair salon or a nail salon over a loud bar any day! I need to check out that audio store. It looks cool from the outside.
