Brownstoner reported in November that the 5,000 square feet of retail space at 117/119 Court Street (at State, shown above) was rented for a record-high $125 a foot after "long and protracted" negotiations.Massey Knakal senior partner Tim King dropped the hint that the space has been let to a company that's been in the food production biz "for the last hundred years."
A month later, no clue as to the identity of the venerable incoming tenant has yet to appear. The folks at Chowhound seem to be leaning towards a grocery store or upscale food merchant, but a restaurant might better fit the two-story space -- which will be quite near the incoming Trader Joe's at Court and Atlantic.
Anyone have any news?

ReplyDeleteI think you're onto something. A visit to the Boar's Head site says:
ReplyDelete"At Boar's Head we start with only the finest ingredients available, just as we've done continuously for over a century."
God, please don't let it be an Olive Garden!
ReplyDeleteHey, I could finally use my $25 Olive Garden gift card!
ReplyDeleteWhy, when you can buy Boar's Head products in every grocery store?
ReplyDeleteIt's an independent deli which should be open this summer.
