(This venue is closed.) This long-lost West Indian storefront has been sealed off with cinderblocks. Given the scarcity of food markets in the immediate neighborhood, the bottle-return business is also more surface than reality.
(This is what happens when you have your blinkers up against the winter wind. The commenter below points out two nearby supermarkets that didn't even register during my walk-through, and a few smaller greengrocers as well. The most attractive prospect is a farmer's market, worth a look come summer. Thanks for the word, Yvette!)

Scarcity of food markets? Not in this immediate part of the neighborhood -there's a Super Foodtown, Bravo, and a few fruit/veggie stands a couple of blocks away. In the summers there's a farmer's market that has gained momentum.
