Popular Binghamton Plaza Pizza Shop to Move In A Few Weeks

New York Pizzeria - which has been a fixture on Binghamton's North Side for decades - should be able to start operating at a new site very soon.

Mayor Jared Kraham on Friday said he expects the pizza place will be moving from its Binghamton Plaza location late this month or early next month.

The mayor said "they will be shifting operations near the end of the month." The popular restaurant will relocate to a small retail complex at 71 Robinson Street, about a half-mile from its current location.

The owners of the eatery were unavailable for comment Friday afternoon.

The city of Binghamton took control of the Binghamton Plaza property four months ago after a lengthy eminent domain case against New Jersey-based Galesi Realty.

Kraham noted aside from New York Pizzeria, the remainder of the main plaza site has been vacated. He said Xpress Convenience & Deli must on the perimeter of the plaza property near West State Street must close soon.

The mayor said Kurious Kids Childcare, which is located in the northeast corner of the plaza property, will be permitted to remain open.

Environmental engineers have been collecting samples as they test for asbestos-containing materials at the Binghamton Plaza.

Demolition plans for the plaza, which are being finalized, must be approved by the state Department of Environmental Conservation.

Kraham said if there are no unanticipated delays, he believes the old Binghamton Plaza site can be cleared by the end of the year.
