Signage recently arrived for The Hood Spot Convenience at 63 Avenue D between Fifth Street and Sixth Street.
The space has seen a string of similar businesses in recent years, including Spoils & Oils Convenience Corp., Super Vape Convenience Corp. and CresCent Deli & Coffee Candy Store.
Meanwhile, on the SW corner of Avenue D and Fifth Street, the 13-story mixed-used development for the lot that once housed the Uncle Johnny grocery (RIP February 2022) is stalled. We haven't seen any activity here for the past two years. However, there are approved permits for the work, dating back to last summer.
