In Lake Grove, the 5 Corners mystery solved
The new building at the busy Five Corners intersection in Lake Grove has sat empty for months with no hints of what the little cream-colored shop will offer. So residents who cruised past have formed their own theories.
A 7-Eleven, a wine bar and an Internet cafe are just some of the suggestions locals have on a Lake Grove forum under the thread, 5 Corners.
“From what I understand, it’s going to be some sort of garbage transfer station, medical waste?” said one post.
Could it really be something so sinister?
At long last, there’s an answer, and it’s a good one for some residents who, one could assume, seem to be highly caffeinated to start.
“It’s a coffee shop,” said Village Clerk Carmela Constant. “We thought it was going to be a Starbucks, but it looks like that fell through.”
She said it will probably be an independently operated java joint.
