A Colombian eatery is moving into 46-26 Greenpoint Ave., the space that was previously occupied by Manolo’s.

The restaurant, to be called Los Verdes, is part of a chain based in Florida.  The restaurant chain’s Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/LosVerdesUSA

Los Verdes will be taking over the space that has been vacant since July 2010, when Manolo’s abruptly closed after police arrested the owners for cocaine dealing.

@Krissi – Bravo! I couldn’t have said it better myself. May be time to partner with local CRE firms to formulate a mutually benefical vision.

I heart Colombian food but gosh darn it we have a lot of places! Personally, I was hoping for like a Payless or mom and pop shoe store.

How is commercial real estate marketed in Sunnyside? It seems like if the landlords banded together in a sort of BID, they’d be better able to market our area to a more diverse set of business owners.
