The site is currently occupied by a grocery store called Cherry Valley Marketplace. It's unknown whether the same business will occupy the new building. Demolition plans were filed in April to take down the existing structure.
An anonymous entity called 1968 2nd Avenue Realty LLC is listed as the new building's developer, according to plans filed with the city. Pine New York is listed as the new building's designer, according to development plans.
