What will be the 12th establishment in 12 years for 334 Bowery?

Over at 334 Bowery, a for-rent sign is up at the retail space behind Bond and Grand Jones. (The listing isn't online just yet.) 

This past September, the Marshal took legal possession of the space after Casa Bond had 22 months here serving upscale Mexican cuisine. 

There was an applicant for the address at Community Board 2 last month. Given the arrival of a for-rent sign late last week, those plans likely didn't materialize. 

Otherwise, the new operators could have been the 12th establishment to give the address a whirl since 2014 (the storefront was divided into two storefronts for a time during this period): 

• Forcella 
• Espoleta 
• Gia Trattoria (first iteration) 
• Slice of Naples
• PYT 
• SRO 
• Bowery Pizza 
• Gia Trattoria (second iteration, different operators)
• Gino Sorbillo
• Xeo Cantina 
• Casa Bond

    It is a tough location for a new restaurant to be successful because of all the well-established places that have been on the block or across the street there for years such as Phebe's, The Wren, Gemma, Bar Primi Bowery and Yoshino. The people who go out to eat in that area would be more likely to go to one of those older places than take a chance on a new place. I am curious to see how that new Godunk Thai restaurant that opened next door to the now closed Casa Bond does.
