The hard luck space downstairs in the Behar building at Bayview and Belsize finally has a for lease sign on it. The agent is DTZ Barnicke. This large space has been the site of a number of failed enterprises including the 7-11 store from a few years ago. The story told is that the space has remained un-offered for occupancy so long because 7-11 was paying the rent. We can’t confirm that but the unfortunate state of this space is a source of legitimate public interest in South Bayview. 7-11, by the way, is the largest convenience store chain in the world and is owned in Japan.
