The plywood is now up around the northwest corner of Avenue B and Fourth Street… we haven't heard anything official yet about the next tenant. The approved work permits just note "interior renovation of existing commercial space."
Last summer we heard a rumor that a tattoo shop was opening here. But that was never confirmed.
Anyway!
The previous tenant, the nice Vella Market, lasted just six months here, closing in October 2013.
The 16-year-old vegetarian restaurant Kate's Joint closed here in April 2012.
