Will pockets of Washington Avenue soon be seeing new life? It appears so. We reported that The Way Station was opening soon, and Grub Street checked it out this week and confirmed. Then, a sign appeared at 687 Washington Avenue saying a West Indian restaurant is coming soon. (There’s also an in-progress restaurant at 669 Washington.) Probably the most interesting rumor we’ve head is that the Crown Fried Chicken on the corner of Prospect will be a bagel spot. Apparently a building violation is holding everything up, which does check out with DOB. We’re getting impatient, though! GMAP

  1. The trick to ordering at The Islands is to ask “what is ready”, then placing your order accordingly.

    …I agree, if she is cooking it from scratch it takes too long. I also don’t attempt delivery, because it takes too long.

  2. The new West Indian place is going to have a tough time getting to leave The Islands, but I wish it luck.

    ….The bagel place has been coming forever, but I am among the people who the construction guys told “its gonna be a bagel shop”
