Streetlevel: Garry's Moves Up the Block
Garry’s Wine & Liquor, whose presence at 234 Flatbush Avenue predates the latest wave of gentrification in Park Slope, is relocating up the block to 80 Saint Marks Avenue, right next door to Flatbush Farm.

oh, beautiful, a nice new shiney solid rolldown gate.
I’ve always liked Gary’s store but the signage at the new location is an abomination. Nothing ruins the streetscape more than unsympathetic signage and this takes the biscuit. The folks next door at Farm must be fuming.
Best of luck to Lenny & crew! Anyone know what’s happening to their previous space?
Apparently Garry…oh never mind. You’re talking about the cleaners.
Oh nevermind. I realized that you might be talking about the liquor store…or rather what this post was ACTUALLY about!!
Sorry to veer off topic.
Yes, Pragonetti, I hear very good things about Green Apple Cleaners, actually. They have some impressive accolades on their website.
I just question their judgment in opening a dry cleaners on a block with 3 already established ones.
And as much as I want to be as eco-friendly as possible, I’m not going to go to Green Apple to pay $2.95 per shirt when GR’s charges $2.00. And a sweater for $7.75? Hell no. I think my place charges $4!!
I wish them luck the people who run it are very nice!
I won’t be back in the hood for a few more hours. I’ll have to stalk ya later. 😉
agreed, a lot of cleaners, and i always wonder if they’re all doing well. i mean does everyone in p.s. send all their clothing to the cleaners?!
oh! glad this topic came up, it JUST reminded me i need to pick up my suit from them right now! yikes, a week late!
if youre around, im the ridiculously good looking person about to walk in there.
i kid
