16th Street’s Brooklyn Oyster Shack Closed

Sad news from Windsor Terrace. Brooklyn Oyster Shack (471 16th Street at Prospect Park West), which opened their doors in August of this year, appears to have closed. Neighbor Teresa Lagerman sent the above photo after noticing the papered up windows on Tuesday.

A sign taped to the front of the building does advertise that a new bar/restaurant, Brooklyn Proper, is coming soon with “proper food and proper drink.” We’ve reached out to Brooklyn Oyster Shack to see whether the owners are just shaking things up, or if the space was indeed sold, but have yet to hear back. We’ll be sure to update the site if we receive any new information.
