To hell with that diet: Shake Shack site construction starting on Flatbush Avenue
Eye On Real Estate: What fabulous foodie might become The Shack's new neighbor?
Park Slope landlord Michael Pintchik expects to start construction next week “with a little bit of luck, assuming there are no glitches” on the site at 170 Flatbush Ave. that will put Danny Meyer’s Shake Shack thisclose to Barclays Center.
And the burger-and-fries mecca could be getting a “very successful Manhattan restaurateur” as a new neighbor, landlord Pintchik revealed to the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. That tenant has a lease out for the combined retail spaces at 208 and 210 Flatbush Ave., with plans to build a “Brooklyn-centric” restaurant, he said.
“People are going to be very pleased with our choice,” predicted Pintchik, whose family owns several properties with vacant retail spaces near the Brooklyn Nets’ new home.
