Heads up!

rumor in PH is that a Dumont Burger-style restauarant will be opening on Vanderbilt and St Marks Ave (in the old bodega space) though there is no sign of work there yet.

I am told it is either going into the former Pena's space, or this nearby space: http://brooklynian.com/forum/prospect-heights/something-is-happening-at-659-vanderbilt-ave-the-old-forest-floor-space#post-769408

Note: We are talking rumors, people.

This probably doesn't bode well for a new Dumont. Sad.

It seems an outpost of Little Cupcake Shop is planning to open up on the corner of St. Marks and Vanderbilt that used to be Pena's bodega, come springtime.
