Summary

Members and attendees welcomed at least three new restaurants in the neighborhood (Van Ness/Garfield, White Plains Road, and Victor Street) and saw them as positive local economic activity.

Community Board 11 members reported new neighborhood businesses at multiple locations and encouraged recognition of local economic activity.

Myra Nunez told the committee there is a new restaurant on Van Ness and Garfield (named in the discussion as "T'hama" or similar), and other participants noted a seafood spot on White Plains Road that replaced a bakery and another new business on Victor Street. "It's a lot of restaurant here now," one participant said; members framed the openings as positive news for the neighborhood.

No formal action or permits were discussed at the meeting; the mentions were informational announcements under new business.
