A large storefront across from the Wantagh Train Station has a vacancy that its owner Sylvester Catalanello is looking to fill soon.
The empty space on 3250 Railroad Ave. was formerly a pizzeria called Crust, which closed last year. Catalanello, owner of Realty Marketing Agency in Wantagh, said he is looking for a retail-type business for the open spot. One inquiry for the property was for a bakery, Catalanello said.
The empty space for rent is around 900 square feet. Catalanello said there is no timetable for choosing a tenant.

You can see the wares and services offered by Burn here: http://www.go2burn.com/ Burn is owned by Columbia Grad and alleged beach bathroom photographer, Eric Berger. As far as what business to put into the former Crust Pizza parlor? Massage therapy or a knife-throwing training school sound apropos of the way our business district seems to be devolving. Business district. Say that a certain way, in conjures up images, maybe from Amsterdam?
The big consideration with this location is the location. High traffic, cars often double-parked, commuters rushing past with no time to stop or shop; car and foot traffic coming and going to & from Wantagh Inn, Mulcahy's, The Cup, and Corry's Ale House; limited parking; the taxi stand and taxicab parking.
The area is a not great for most businesses, people should be happy that there is a store there, would you rather it be empty and run down? I prefer having a business in there that has a clean storefront, who are you to make a baseless claim that there are less then legal activities going on.
Not much room for a gym. We have the full service World Gym, 0.8 mile of the former Pizzeria site. There are also three martial arts businesses and The Marianne Anderson School of Dance within walking distance.
