The former 7A on Tuesday via Bobby Williams]
The paperwork on file ahead of
next month's CB3/SLA meeting provides
some information about what's to come to 7A,
which closed after Sunday, and the Odessa Cafe & Bar.
7A
The
applicant's name (PDF!) for the space is New 7A Cafe LLC. The name of the managing partner on the application is Paul Salmon. He is a co-founder of Joe's Pub (along with Kevin Abbott, Serge Becker and Josh Pickard) and Miss Lily's, the Jamaican bar and restaurant on West Houston.
The
rumor out there was that Becker and Pickard were opening some kind of Southern-themed restaurant here.
The Odessa Cafe & Bar
The applicant's name for the space at 117 Avenue A is simply Avenue A Project LLC. However, an email address associated with the
applicant (PDF!) is for DeRossi Global, the company behind Death and Co., Amor Y Amargo, Mayahuel, the Bourgeois Pig, Gin Palace and Proletariat.
There's no other information on the application about what's to come. Based on the other DeRossi establishments, you could go with "high-end cocktails" and likely be
close to being right.
The Odessa Cafe & Bar closed
last Aug. 31. The Odessa dates here to 1965.
