Over on Avenue B and East Fourth Street, Vella Market closed without any notice in early October.
A reader heard that the Vella folks had been in a dispute with their landlord over backpay on rent. (There was also that hefty Con Ed bill.)
Anyway, "for rent" signs went up on Friday.
Vella had just opened in April. We liked the place. The previous tenant, Kate's Joint, the 16-year-old vegetarian eatery, closed in April 2012.
Now we'll likely get more of those franchise rumors for this prime corner.
