Atlantic Yards Demolition Update: JRG Cafe Gone

JRG Cafe when it was still open for business "Demolition is underway at 175 Flatbush Avenue (block 1118, lot 6), and 177 Flatbush Avenue (block 1118, lot 5); 177 Flatbush Avenue will likely be completed within this period." From the ESDC construction update. The space where JRG Cafe was, photographed today.

Atlantic Yards: Everything Must Go

The JRG Restaurant is slated for demolition in preparation for the Atlantic Yards development. Today they were having an "everything must go" sale. I wish I had snapped a picture of the glowing orbs that would light up the canopied deck at night, when the sound of music, laughter, and clinking glasses would waft through the otherwise sparsely appointed lots -- always a welcome accompaniment on the walk home from Atlantic-Pacific station.
