A Kitchen to Share, Perhaps to Build a Business

The Economic Development Corporation is seeking someone to operate a
large, shared kitchen that would be rented by entrepreneurs with dreams
of developing food businesses. Using $1 million allocated by the City
Council, the chosen operator would set up ovens, ranges and other
cooking equipment in a 4,000-square-foot space in La Marqueta, the
largely abandoned, city-owned food market under the commuter-train
tracks along Park Avenue.

Pinsky, president of the New York City Economic Development Corporation; Councilwoman Melissa Mark-Viverito; the City Council speaker, Christine C. Quinn; and Amy Scherber, owner of Amy’s Bread.
