I loved the Gourmet Garage when I lived in the Village last century. It was sophiticated. It was food porn, but in a reasonably not so so so expensive package. I got a lot of soup there b4 Hale and Hearty ruined soup.

In 1988, the Times called the building "a suburban solution" to "a difficult building site." (https://www.nytimes.com/1988/12/11/realestate/posting-in-the-village-urban-suburbia.html). The original developers received permission from the pushover New York City Landmarks Commission to raze the one-story building that was there to build the ugly thing. And Gourmet Garage is just another tool of gentrification, like Whole Foods. I'm quite surprised that you mourn its loss.Scouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860208585189661470noreply@blogger.com
