Seen & Heard: Gourmet Garage Is Getting Closer

••• Gourmet Garage put up awnings, and I peeked over the paper in the windows to take a shot. (Blurry but you get the idea.) “We are ready but awaiting final Fire Department inspection and Con Ed gas turn on,” emailed owner Andy Arons in response to my request for an update. “We can’t even begin moving stuff in until then. Probably early September, definitely by mid-September.”

••• There’s something amusing about gentrification paying homage to urban decay. (That’s the new home of Tribeca Pediatrics.)

Papyrus••• “First shop in Fulton Center apparently is a beauty bar for men,” tweeted M.M. De Voe of Pen Parentis. Indeed, a screenshot of The Men’s Bar‘s website is below. (The email address didn’t work—too much moisturizer in the server?)

  2. The shelves are stocked at Gourmet Garage as of today (9/8) with non-perishables. I figure any day now…
