Espresso Bar for storefront next to Smiling Pizza

A tipster told us that an espresso bar is coming into the storefront at 324 7th Avenue, next to the Smiling Pizza Storefront. They say it will be an "Italian crepe and espresso bar" with the classic Italian marble bar for stand-up espresso, which will be of the Illy variety. Dunno when they'll be open, but right now they even have Italian newspaper up on the windows!

A nice 1-2-3 from the corner: grab some pizza, wash it down with espresso, and top it off with ice cream.

That's too bad. I liked the little bakery that was there. Did they move somewhere else? They need to clean that block up. It's dirty looking plus too much pigeon crap.
