It’s a big news day in the food department for Cobble and Boerum Hill. This morning, The Brooklyn Eagle broke the news (well, it’s still technically a rumor) that Trader Joe’s will be moving into the Independence Bank building at Atlantic on Court. No sooner had we read that than a tipster passed on word from a “fairly reliable neighborhood source” that the the Army Navy and Realty storefronts at Smith and Wyckoff (GMAP) were going to be taken over by McDonald’s. “If this is true, then, well, it f—ing sucks,” groused our man on the inside. Anyone else heard this?
