Starbucks SWO

There has been an early bump in the road to lattes on the Gowanus side of the Park Slope-Gowanus DMZ. The construction site at 4th Avenue and 3rd Street that’s the rumored future location of a Starbucks isn’t off to the best start with the Department of Buildings. As of yesterday, there was a partial Stop Work Order on the job because a city inspector noticed approximately 100 feet of fencing missing from the site. Interestingly, there are no work permits posted anywhere on the fence and a copy of the stop-work mandate was lying on the ground on 4th Avenue. Actually, make that a Venti instead of a Grande.
