NY Post (January 28, 2010): Three years ago, it was an ailing, three-block stretch in Downtown Brooklyn filled with vacant storefronts and 99-cent stores.
But today, Livingston Street, from Hoyt Street to Flatbush Avenue, is prospering in the face of an economic recession with a host of new retail stores serving a wide variety of clientele.
Local officials credit the opening of a new International House of Pancakes in Dec. 2007 on Livingston Street as being the catalyst for the street’s revitalization, along with new spillover customers from Fulton Street Mall (which is prospering also from a diversification of new retailers).
Since then, eight new businesses have moved to the stretch on Livingston Street, either replacing failed stores or taking over unused space, such as the popular hip-hop clothing chain, Pulse (358 Livingston).
Arby’s is open on Fulton Street! The place was packed this afternoon for lunch. Check out some of the photos we took:
