      Crown Heights finally taking a cue from Williamsburg. As the community expands, there a need for a local shul, mikvah and grocery.

      Does East Flatbush have a full service grocery yet?

      What about Brownsville? (maybe not enough families yet to support one?)

      The rumors I was hearing was a fight/bidding war to open a supermarket… never heard about bingo though.
      In the remaining commercial space of this building, or in the building that will be next door?

      I heard there's gonna be a space for Call of the Shofar retreats and Mic Drop events. There will be a kosher eruv that doesn't exist, chicken under lamed k; beef under CHK. When the second building goes up, an illegal tunnel will be excavated to connect the two structures.
