Prince Street's Zoë to Close After 18 Years

Flo Fab reports the sad news that after 18 years in business, Zoë in Soho will shutter at the end of the week. Owners cite the end of their lease and changes in the neighborhood for the shutter: “It’s no longer a bastion of the art world the way it was,” he said. “We can only tweak the concept so far. Mr. Loffredo will do some consulting work and his wife will work in her family’s real estate business in Brooklyn. The Loffredos had two other unsuccessful restaurant projects, Cena on East 22nd Street, and Jovia, later Zoë Townhouse, on the Upper East Side.”
