FRANNY'S IS MOVING . . . to Park Slope

Further proof of the inherent superiority of Park Slope ;-)

Indeed. The Franny's folks will be turning the old space into (another) Italian restaurant: http://www.dailyheights.com/2012/01/22/frannys-will-get-bigger-when-it-takes-over-blockbuster-on-flatbush-avenue/

I'm happy the Blockbuster space will be reverting back to a restaurant. I'm old enough to remember the fancy sitdown place that was there prior to Blockbuster.

Nice.

I was afraid we'd get a drug store in that space.

The new location is supposed to finally open this week.
