Workers started putting up the plywood on the corner of St. Mark's Place and Avenue A yesterday.
As we first reported on Monday, the paperwork is on file at the Department of Buildings for a Starbucks in this now-combined corner space that previously housed Nino's and Hop Devil Grill.
No word on a tentative opening date just yet for the Starbucks. There are other questions too, as posed by @EdenBrower, who took the above photo...

ReplyDeleteWhy cant we get a Starbucks on Avenue D?
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised they did not take the park side storefronts instead of the street. May the Ave A side will become another "new playground gastro pub".
ReplyDeleteanyone make the CB3 meeting on banning chains?
ReplyDeleteI hope it reaches from st marks and A to Zucotti Park. It will be tremendous! I only like big Starbucks not small loser Starbucks.
