The corner of 5th Avenue and Bergen Street in Brooklyn used to house a cheap little furniture store, but
Bobo Bergen is expanding and the space is now home to
"high-end Scottish whisky bar" the Duke of Montrose, according to Here's Park Slope.
Construction on "the Duke" revealed an old butcher shop sign long hidden beneath the furniture shop's sign. It appears to be hand-painted on metal.
A week after I took this first photo, I received the following shot from reader Joel Schechter with a note saying the sign is being stripped off. Joel saw "a pile of the panels from the old sign removed, stacked on the ground. One of the panels was bent like a pretzel."
Does anyone know anything about this butcher shop specializing in "Quarters for Holiday Poultry"?
