Bklink: South Slope Slurpees

We've been watching the building being renovated at Fifth Avenue and Thirteenth Streets wondering what would go there, and now we know: a 7-11. It's unclear how widely the news has spread in the neighborhood or whether the 7-11 will be welcomed or greeted with derision. Chains and bank branches have been slowly opening on this stretch of Fifth Avenue.--Brownstoner
