As previously reported, the Taiwan-based Xing Fu Tang, a bubble tea chain specializing in brown sugar boba, will be setting up shop here...
No word on an opening date...
Nobletree Coffee closed here in May 2019 after just five months in business. This storefront previously sat empty for three years — ever since DF Mavens closed in January 2016 ... after a Dec. 26, 2014 debut. (It took the Mavenators 14 months to open the space.)
Other tenants in recent years include Eastside Bakery (.net?) and Roastown Coffee. And the only business to last here in the past 30 years: the Gap, from 1988 to 2001.
Thanks to Steven for the photos! (And thanks to Jeff and Brian for sending some along as well!)

Good grief, bring back the Gap already.
"Brown Surger"? Who doesn't proofread before paying for a specialty sign?!?!?
I don't know if anyone from this new place will read this post, but if they do, the word "sugar" is spelled incorrectly on the signage behind the guy standing at the counter. Whoever put up those letters made it "surger."
Bring back the St Marks Cinema - I'm in the mood for a double feature!
“You haven’t had bubble tea like this!” - the next EV business idea-person
"Brown Surger" that's The Rolling Stones song which was not a hit.
lol ridiculous
I agree with "Older Historian", and would love to bring back the St. Marks Cinema. I will never forget watching "Alien" there, around 1980. Some drunk had been keeping a running dialogue with the action on screen, and everyone enjoyed some peace when he when he dozed off. He awoke just as a very slender Sigourney Weaver, clad in undergarments, was stepping into her spacesuit. Excitedly, he screamed "Oh, shit, I missed it. Alien ate her ass off, right!?!"
