Sour Mouse on Delancey, billed as "the Hottest underground social club in the LES."
We've heard from several residents who live nearby with concerns about the business, particularly the late-night closing times. Flyers on the block noted (in all caps): "Nothing less than the quality of life on these streets is at stake."
• Lava Ground LLC, 4 St Marks Pl (wb)
There's not a lot of information about the bar concept proposed for the lower level of 4 St. Mark's Place near Third Avenue.
The unnamed establishment will offer bar food such as wings and beef patties with daily hours of 10 a.m. to 4 a.m.
According to the questionnaire, which you can read

• Balkan Streat (Wolf of 3rd Ave LLC), 145 2nd Ave (wb)
A fast-casual restaurant called Balkan Streat is in the works for the NW corner of Second Avenue and Ninth Street (the former Starbucks).
As the name implies, owners William Djuric and Jason Correa plan to provide a menu with food from the Balkans. (The questionnaire
here includes a sample menu.) According to his bio, Djuric, who worked at Gramercy Tavern and Momofuku Ssam Bar, decided to "pursue his dream of opening a Balkan restaurant that would be inspired by his [late] father's Serbian heritage and childhood summers spent in Yugoslavia."
The restaurant has proposed daily hours from noon to 11 p.m., with a 2 a.m. close on Friday and Saturday.
• El Primo Red Tacos (El Primo Red Tacos NYC LLC), 151 Ave A (wb)
