What's Up with Mike's

I'm also glad the Water Department is making the owner of the Mike's Sub building toe the line (or possibly hook up to the line) before signing off on his plans to add to the building. This is exactly the kind of vigilance we need to see. See the article in the Daily News

However, the most interesting element of the article was the throwaway last paragraphs.

Finneran wants to add a second story to the Mike's Subs building and install an office there. The ground floor, he said, would house an operation similar to the previous sandwich shop, with no on-premises consumption of food.

He has approvals from the Zoning Board of Appeals and the Historical Commission for his plans, but can't go forward without a water and sewer OK.

The last we heard, wrote, and read about, the Historical Commission had issues with his expansion plans. I guess these have been resolved. Any details out there?

As an aside, I thought the name of his trust was interesting, First & Ocean, like the former bank.
