Former Gotham restaurant site in Manhattan has new owner

Article excerpt

A Texas-born chef known for high-end Italian restaurants has acquired the Manhattan storefront where Gotham Bar and Grill once operated. Stefano Secchi, who runs the Michelin-starred establishments Rezdora and Massara in Flatiron, led the group that purchased the retail condo at 12 East 12th Street. The iconic Gotham location shuttered two years ago, ending decades of fine dining at the address. Details about Secchi's plans for the space remain unclear.
