Gap Factory Store Opens On Flatbush Avenue, Across From The Kings Theatre

We’ve learned the Gap Factory Store has opened on Flatbush Avenue, just across from the Kings Theatre at 1027 Flatbush Avenue (which is undergoing a $94 million restoration project and is set to open this January), and a neighbor told us there are some major sales happening at the new Gap.

In addition to the Gap, there’s a Crunch Gym that’s expected to open in the area, next door to the hotel being built at 1024-1030 Flatbush Avenue. The Crunch Gym, as well as the hotel, have yet to open, and when we called the Crunch Gym’s Park Slope location, we were told it would be “quite some time” before the fitness center opened its doors.

What do you think of the new Gap? Are you planning on shopping there? What about the other developments – the gym and the hotel? How do you think these developments will impact the area?
