Signs of renovation life at 100 Avenue A

[Photo from June 13 by Bobby Williams]

Nothing has really happened renovations-wise here at 100 Avenue A since East Village Farm (or Farms, as I like to call it) closed back in February.

The city disapproved the first round of plans to renovate the space, including adding a "dwelling unit" and roof garden on the upper floors.

But!

On Monday, 100 Avenue A reps filed new paperwork with the DOB:

LOWERING OF THE EXISTING CELLAR WHICH INCLUDES FOUNDATION WALLS AND FOOTINGS. NO CHANGE IN USE, OCCUPANCY OR EGRESS.

And at an estimated cost of $175,000.

Well, that's not much, but it is some kind of proof that plans are still in the works to convert the former grocery and theater.
