In recent weeks, workers have placed green plywood over part of the front, including the retail space. A few readers asked what was happening with that storefront, previously home to the Crocodile Lounge.
Nothing too revealing in public records, where work permits show wiring for the basement retail space (marked as "white box") and walk-in cooler.
As previously reported, in a transaction posted in October, an LLC connected to The Sabet Group bought the four-story building for $3.3 million, down from its initial $5.5 million ask.
For generations, a family has owned the building known as The James McCreery House.
The retail space has been home to restaurants for many years, including Il Faro and, in the 1990s, Manila Garden. The place was the Crocodile Lounge in recent years, which never reopened after the COVID shutdown in March 2020.
