The old Century 21 building on 86th Street is finally coming down this November, making way for a $47.5 million retail hub called Century Marketplace. After years of empty storefronts and abandoned plans, the new owners are promising a fresh mix of shops, food spots, and—maybe most exciting for locals—a national grocery store. The first stores could open by 2027, bringing new energy to the neighborhood and complementing favorites like Banana Republic and Sephora. What do you hope to see in the new space? Is this the boost Bay Ridge needs, or will you miss the old Century 21? #Business #LocalBusiness #BayRidge
