Look, activity at 100 Avenue A

Several residents were startled by this sight yesterday at 100 Avenue A... A truck! Traffic cones!

Because nothing has basically happened since East Village Farms closed in February 2012. The city disapproved the first round of plans to renovate the space, including adding a "dwelling unit" and roof garden on the upper floors.

The sidewalk outside the storefront has mostly been used to accommodate some people in need of a place to sleep this past year.

Anyway, we're hearing some funny rumors about all this... Maybe you have too?

    Ugh...I miss this place so much. My bedroom window faced this deli and I used to stare out my window when I couldn't sleep at night watching the late night antics of this deli, Stromboli pizza and Niagara. Jimmy, the deli guys made the BEST sandwiches, plus he was a nice guy. I miss seeing him every day.

    Though I kinda like the current state of the deli too and wish that wouldn't change, but.....
