Colonie Restaurant hopes to fill of one of Atlantic Ave’s empty storefronts soon–but they need your help to do it. Brooklyn Heights Blog first reported that the three co-owners of the proposed eatery would like to open the space at 127 Atlantic Ave (next to Floyd between Henry and Clinton) but still need to raise cash. To do so, they’re asking you to contribute via Kickstarter–a website that allows wanna-be entrepreneurs to get a project funded in a certain amount of time–or abandon said project. If the needed coin isn’t raised, no money changes hands. According to the site, the focus of the restaurant is “local, seasonal American cuisine with a definite bias to all things gastronomically Brooklyn, and [our] wine list will be unique yet super approachable and affordable.” Your help will buy them “a great counter top and bar stools, sexy kitchen appliances, beautiful pendant lamps, and cool tiles for the wall.” Incentives are being offered to everyone who contributes, though I don’t know exactly what they are. It’s certainly an interesting idea–let’s see if these go-getters can pull it off!
