Old Pipin’s site in Bay Ridge sold for record $6 million; restaurant will not be returning
The saga continues.
More than a year after permits were first filed on what was to be a new, six-story development at the former site of the storied Pipin’s Pub, the property has been sold to a new developer with new intentions, and for a record price.
As of last summer, the multi-million dollar project – which was supposed to encompasses 9701 Third Avenue as well as the long vacant site next door once occupied by J.T.’s Restaurant – was slated to include 20 apartments within 23,154 square feet of residential space on five floors, four per floor.
On the ground floor, Pipin’s – a multi-generational family business and mainstay in Bay Ridge that, since the initial sale, has relocated to a “pop-up” location at 9023 Third Avenue, the former home of Circles Grill – was eventually to have had its homecoming.
