As reported yesterday, the reimagined Uncommon Grounds asked CB2 last night to approve its application for outdoor seating.
The board voted to allow the proposal: 6 for, 2 against, 3 abstentions. The CB2 Executive Committee will make a final ruling before the board’s next meeting.



I worked in Brooklyn in the early 60′s. I had opportunity to meet The writer Willard Maas & His wife Marie Menken and her Sister Adele Menken. They lived on Montague Street jus down the street from a Liquor Store. I also remember a great Chinese resturant. I think it was called the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Compan. Anyone have experiences/memories to share from that era? Please e’mail MDSTEIN22webtv.net. Thanks
