What’s Up At 762 Manhattan Avenue?*

This questioned was posited to me some time ago by a reader. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to locate her email. Otherwise I would excerpt it here.  Anyhoo, I do recall her voicing concerns that this storefront would be occupied by American Apparel. I am writing this post to let her know she can lay her worries to rest.

As I was walking by today I spied a few gentleman standing out front. I asked them what was slated to occupy this space and they told me: a General Nutrition Center. I refrained from pointing out there is a General Nutrition Center located inside the Rite Aid at 783 Manhattan Avenue because I felt it was not my business to do so. In any case, it is proof positive once again that Greenpoint’s Law of Overabundance is alive and well!

*Which some of you might recall was the scene of a fatal— and completely inexcusable— scaffolding  accident.

I encountered this cute (and incredibly shy) fella at the intersection of South 3rd and Roebling Street today. Per his “person” (a kindly older gent) his name is Scooby Doo.

And as his shirt plainly states, he is Puerto Rican too!
