We noticed workers disassembling the signage at C-Town (1301 Church Avenue between Argyle and Rugby Roads) the other day, and now we know why–banners now posted on the building say an Ideal Market is coming soon.

This isn’t the first local C-Town to become an Ideal–the Ideal Market at 710 Coney Island Avenue (between Avenue C and Cortelyou Road) switched from one to the other in late 2012. We wonder if the C-Town at 597 E 16th Street (between Newkirk and Foster Avenues) is next.

For neighbors who used to shop at the CIA C-Town and have since shopped at Ideal, has your experience improved or declined? And neighbors who’ve been shopping at the Church Avenue C-Town, are you looking forward to a change?
