If you stopped by Martine’s this week to grab your favorite sandwich, some blueberry tea with lemon ice, or a sinful cupcake (we won’t tell), you were probably disappointed. The store was shut, but for a good purpose: It’s getting a major facelift. Customers are likely in for a some surprises today, when the bakery is slated to reopen.

We’ll be back  A sign in the window promised the store would re-open on Friday (today!) Have you seen it yet?

Although no shop staff was in sight on Thursday, two workmen were present, taking measurements and standing beside planks of wood, assorted tools at their feet. Asked whether there would be new counters, one of the men replied, “New counters, new everything.” The Insider plans to visit ASAP and will report on how the new space looks.
