The Somerville Times is reporting that Patsy's Pastry Shop on Broadway will be closing down on May 4, with a new structure consisting of 19 apartment units taking its place. The article mentions that the new building will have space for a shop of some kind on the ground level, and that Patsy's has first crack at the space if they want it, but co-owner Sal Ferrigno indicates that while it is something they may consider, they have not made a definite decision on this, adding that "none of us have been on a vacation for a very long time."
Patsy's Pastry Shop, which first opened in 1968, has been known in part for its variety of cakes, pies, cookies, and pastries, including a number of Italian treats (cannoli, amaretto, anise cookies, almond biscotti, etc.).
The address for this soon-to-close pastry shop in East Somerville is: Patsy's Pastry Shop, 182 Broadway, Somerville, MA, 02145.
