All-Natural Grocery and Vitamin Shop for 139 Fifth Avenue

For the past few years, 139 Fifth Avenue, just across the street from Big Red on the southeast corner of St. Johns Place, has gone from being home to a shuttered, scaffolded, car-damaged bodega to a renovated, shiny brownstone with some new ground-floor tilework. On Saturday, I noticed a gate was up and asked a gentleman standing inside the retail space if he knew what would be moving in.

"It will be an all-natural vitamin store," he said. "Vitamins, beauty supplies, all-natural snacks, that kind of thing."

So there you have it.

Nice to see all these empty spaces filling up around the Slope.

As I travel around the country, I am always surprised how well Brooklyn has been weathering this financial situation we have been in for the past few years. Park Slope in particular seems lively and vibrant with regard to its commercial areas.
