On the agenda for tonight’s Zoning Board of Appeals meeting is a request regarding 184 State Street, former home of The Frame Shop. Building owner Geoffrey Rice and “prospective lessee” Mike Keon are seeking variances regarding the required number of on street parking spots and closing hours “for a proposed restaurant”.
Keon and business partner Anthony Allen own Otto Pizza and Ocho Burrito. The opening of a new restaurant at 184 State Street, would provide Keon and Allen 3 spots in Longfellow Square: the former Petite Jacqueline space now being converted into an Ocho Burrito, the original Ocho space just around thee corner on Congress, and 184 State St.
Pray tell what will 184 State Street be?
The agenda doesn’t indicate. An Otto Pizza seems likely unless they plan to launch something entirely new.
The former Vespucci’s storefront at Danforth/Clark has a “for lease or sale” sign. Blue Phoenix fell through?
Enuf Otto Ocho Pizza –bad use of prime real estate
Agree with “Joe Blow” — Not another Otto’s pizza! Something different please.
