Buzzing about some random business openings on Vernon Blvd
Rumored site of a new high-end beauty salon on Vernon Blvd, LIC
1) Right next to the new spot Ethereal, is supposedly manifesting a small, French sandwich-style bistro named Figaro.
2) Across the street, and at the site in the picture is rumored to become a high-end beauty salon. The interior is currently being gutted.
3) This new building complex on Vernon, owned by the Manducati family, is rumored to be delivering a fancy, gourmet food store to the ground level. Think Zabar’s, not Gristedes.
4) Right next door to New Level Floral’s new location at 44th Drive, is going to play host to a new cigar lounge called Halo.
