We always tried being optimistic about Cappuccino on the Bay. We [hyped its reopening](/coming-soon-cappuccino-on-avenue-z/). We[ reviewed its new digs](/title-22/). We stopped by as often as we could stand to drink espresso. But in the end, Cappuccino on the Bay’s five-month existence at Avenue Z and East 17th Street passed like a numbing epilogue at the tail of a story many decades in the telling.

Cappuccino on the Bay shut down abruptly over the weekend. On Monday, the windows were covered in paper and a new tenant was already doing minor work inside. We can’t say whether or not the owner is looking for a third storefront in a little over a year – maybe some place with better foot traffic – but it’s unlikely. Our visits over the past few months saw the owner increasingly forlorn (or so it seemed), and our guess is he finally threw in the towel. A financial investment firm is moving into the location.

Cappuccino on the Bay moved to Avenue Z in July, after being [forced out](/set-for-a-showdown-sbpb-vs-best-western/) of it’s Emmons Avenue location when [the property was sold](/best-western-real-estate-klusterfuck/) a few months before. It sat on Emmons for generations, serving many bay residents their first espresso drinks. Fare thee well, Cap on the Bay. You’ll be missed.
