Openings on Vanderbilt — Brooklynian

Openings on Vanderbilt

edited May 2014 in Prospect Heights
There's a lot of turnover on Vanderbilt these days:
-Salon Biton space now has a Salon 718 sign.
-R&D Foods is about to open in the old Wink store.
- Polish Bar of Brooklyn and Brooklyn Pizza Factory spaces are quickly coming along, too.

Does anyone know what will become of these last two?

  • And there appears to be something happening in one of the storefronts in between The Vanderbilt and Empire Mayo.
  • The Brooklyn Pizza Factory space is going to a place called Kids Design the World: http://kidsdesigntheworld.com/

    Anyone know what's going in the old Forest Floor space?
  • Forest floor is becoming a wine bar, owned by Plan B.
  • inch by inch!

  • afaik there's nothing actually happening in the space between the vanderbilt and mayo. it used to be a medical facility but now just seems really sketchy. ive seen people coming in and out of it for the last year with random boxes and goods in hand. i peeked inside the other day when someone was walking into it and its just a bunch of stored junk inside with a hanging lightbulb in the center.

    Maybe the landlord is just using it to store stuff.
  • As it turns out, Polish Bar is still Polish Bar. They're just renovating.
  • Except that the awning now says Honey Nail Spa...
  • I can't be the only person who constantly misinterpreted the name and was disappointed and suddenly looking around for a place to enjoy a beer and pierogi close to home.  Artisinal pierogi, of course.
  • Thank you for saying what I have been thinking..
  • Nope youre not.  I excitedly thought the same.  You still have Soda Bar, which last time I was there, had sausages and pierogies.
  • I like Soda Bar, but I've (recently) had two bad burgers in a row and stick to the booze now.  Forgot they have pierogies, so maybe next time...
  • Well, less than a year and Kids Design The World has just closed. Saw moving boxes outside today.

    I saw a sign in Kids Design The World's window tonight that says it's becoming a children's toy store.
