This is the new projected opening date for Panda Express

Here's a follow-up to our post from Monday about an opening date for Panda Express on the SW corner of First Avenue and 14th Street. 

A spokesperson for Panda Express tells us the following: 
The projected opening date is 6/5/2023. This is not a guarantee that the location will open on that date and is only an estimate of the time frame.
We're now 16 months into the first report of the PE opening on this corner. 

As noted late last summer, there were issues with permits — as in waiting for the city, Con Ed, etc., to approve them. A PE rep told The Village Sun that this outpost wouldn't open until the first quarter of 2023. (One tipster said to us that management here was very late in completing the necessary paperwork for the various licenses, etc.)

Panda Express launched in California in 1983 ... with more than 2,000 locations today, including a handful around NYC.
