Reginelli’s move across Magazine wins easy approval at first hearing
|
Reginelli’s proposed move across Magazine Street breezed through its hearing before the City Planning Commission on Tuesday, drawing no opposition and winning unanimous approval from the commissioners. Technically, the State Street pizzeria was asking permission to sell alcoholic beverages in the former WOW Wingery building it is renovating for a planned October relocation, but the city looks at the entirety of the project in evaluating the request. Owner Darryl Reginelli spoke briefly to the City Planning Commission with architect Gary Krasnow (click for video), explaining that he has no problems with the provisions the city staff recommends to prevent the new location from ever transitioning into a bar. “I think it’s a win for the neighborhood. We’re going to completely redevelop the property and bring it back to an old, traditional corner storefront,” Reginelli said.
