Intrusive Corner Grocers Vestibule Kaput?

A local vestibule shamed into submission is not returning to the Lower East Side this winter season. At least it appears that way.

As near-freezing temperatures spur owners to retrieve the enclosures from storage, Corner Grocers has not done so. You’ll recall that the monstrous bodega at 140 Orchard Street irked the neighbors upon its opening last year with a sidewalk-hogging vestibule. The block vociferously complained for months until DOB officials finally arrived at their doorstep.

It’s clear passage…for now.
