"At 33 S. Second Street, Mei Mei — an upscale Taiwanese restaurant Jay Ho opened on March 12 — had to pivot to takeout in April and only added limited outdoor dining in June (space for five tables), so the Second Street closure let them add about a dozen more; Ho said, “It finally felt like a restaurant again,” stressing that they’re designed to be an intimate fine-dining establishment, not a takeout spot, and that the weekend street closure “went great” as a kind of guinea pig for the city." - Rachel Vigoda
