Brooklyn icon Sahadi’s recognized by the state as a historic business

By Aaron Ginsburg

Sahadi's, a New York City staple for more than 120 years, has been added to the state's Historic Business Preservation Registry, as first reported by the Brooklyn Paper. The Middle Eastern grocery store and cafe first opened in Lower Manhattan in 1895 before moving to Brooklyn's Atlantic Avenue in 1948 where it has been located ever since. The registry, overseen by the Office of Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation, recognizes businesses that have operated for at least 50 years and have "contributed to their communities' history."

Today, beloved Middle Eastern grocery store Sahadi's is opening its second Brooklyn location at Industry City, and it'll now include a sit-down restaurant. It's the first expansion for the third-generation, family-owned business, whose production facility has long been located nearby in Sunset Park. The new 7,500- square-foot space will have 80 seats, Lebanese wines on tap, daily meze specials, grab-and-go options, and one of NYC's only operational Saj griddles. As co-owner Ron Sahadi says, "We were artisanal before it was cool."
