Shank's old spot to get new life

The South Philly storefront that formerly housed the venerable Shank's & Evelyn's luncheonette (932 S. 10th St.) will get a new restaurant, perhaps late this summer or early fall.

Carlo Nigro, whose family has an assortment of businesses (real estate, auto body), is mum on the name and concept. The Nigros bought the building last year.

Meanwhile, Shank's appears to be several weeks from resurfacing on 15th Street near Sansom in Center City.
