There's an application on file with CB3 for a new liquor license at 104 Third Ave. on the southwest corner of 13th Street.
According to
paperwork (PDF) at the CB3 website and in the window of the empty storefront...
... the applicants are Declan Rainsford and Rory Dolan, who are partners in several establishments in White Plains as well as the two-level Brazen Fox directly across 13th Street.
The questionnaire with more information about the proposed bar-restaurant hasn't been posted just yet. However, the notification in the window shows that the two are seeking a full liquor license and a sidewalk cafe.
The empty storefront was home until last June to
Gothic Cabinet Craft shop. The family-owned custom wood furniture shop had been on this corner since 1969.
It will be interesting to see the response to a new liquor license in
a saturated area in a storefront that previously wasn't licensed.
The CB3 SLA committee meeting is April 18 at 6:30 p.m. in the CB3 office, 59 E. Fourth St. between Second Avenue and the Bowery.
