Fort Greene Takes a Big Gulp

When reader noticed some activity at the shuttered French Cleaners on the corner of Cumberland and Lafayette in Fort Greene, he walked in for a closer look and found some flyers in the window advertising for 7-Eleven franchises in Brooklyn. Anyone know if this space is actually going to be converted into “Sev’s,” as we used to call it in our Slurpee-sipping teenage days? Our reader isn’t particularly jazzed about having a chain store in the neighborhood but admits that it would be nice to have a deli in the area that stays open past 10 or 11 PM.
Check out the flyers in the window after the jump.
