Streetlevel: Greenmarket for Ungentrified Stretch of Fulton

A stretch of Fulton Street whose mix of offerings has failed to evolve with the neighborhood around it is getting its first taste of gentrification in the form of, what else, an organic market. The storefront at 969 Fulton Street between Washington Avenue and St. James Place in Clinton Hill, until recently a generic looking real estate office, is in the process of transforming into something called the Green Planet. From the awning, this place has the feel of one of those early-90′s health food stores as opposed to something with particularly great food, but, regardless, it’s nice to see something other than bodegas and nail salons along here. How do you think it’ll do? GMAP
