The fast-casual salad joint closed at 10 Astor Place between Broadway and Lafayette on Sunday after nine years in service.
Sweetgreeners are instructed to visit the outpost on University Place and 12th Street. (There's also one of the Bowery at Third Street.)
This is a surprise, as the location seemed busy and was in an area seemingly friendly to the fast-casualization trend.
And now a few ICYMI items from around Astor Place (signage for these places has been up since the spring)...
A Hampton Chutney is opening a few storefronts away, closer to Broadway... in a space that has seen a lot of turnover in recent years.
No word has been announced on an opening date for the quick-serve brand selling Indian crêpes, aka dosas.
NYU has entered a long-term lease for 1.1 million square feet of space at 770 Broadway (the Wannamaker Building where Wegman's is).
Plans call for the university to "consolidate faculty and research in a collaboration hub focused on battling diseases and saving lives," per a news release. (Thanks to the reader for the photo.)
And around the corner at 68 Cooper Square, Perfect Meat Bowl, a — you guessed it — build-your-own-meat-bowl concept with nine locations in Ontario, Canada, is in the works. This marks the first U.S. outpost.
This space was previously occupied by Gold Bao, which "closed for renovations" in June 2024, and The Alley, a bubble tea spot.
