“Restaurant wrap-up: Building developer John DeAngelis has finally found a noshery to go into the first floor of the American Textile Building. Just in time for the museum’s opening next month, a Greek Italian restaurant will finally replace the long-gone Gazebo Cafe. The owners are from Miami and are applying for a liquor license too.”
