After raids, fines and silence, is Green Line finally done on Avenue B?

Green Line, the unlicensed cannabis joint at 42 Avenue B between Third Street and Fourth Street, has been closed since early December.

At that time, according to witnesses, Green Line employees got into a row, and basically trashed the place in the process. 

Now, a demand-for-rent notice from the landlord, Steve Croman, has arrived. Building employees say Green Line has not responded to any messages.
The shop was busted multiple times last year, most recently on Nov. 18. 

Despite repeated raids and fines, the shop kept pulling a Michael Myers–Jason Voorhees comeback, rising from the dead again and again. Could this really be the end of the (Green) line?

    That landlord and that shop deserve each other.
