But the apparent upcoming openings could breathe life back into a section of Fifth Avenue that has had a rocky stretch for local businesses.
Both storefronts are next to LuLu’s Cuts & Toys, which closed in February amid a shift into an online business.
The aforementioned The Original Hot Dog Factory had closed during the coronavirus pandemic.
The storefront for Halal Grill Bros has been vacant for several years.
When the Halal Grill Bros opens, it will be the fourth location for the business, according to the company’s website.
The bb.q Chicken chain opened in Seoul, South Korea, in 1995, that company’s website states.

It has now expanded to 57 countries, 3,500 locations, with more than 130 in the U.S., including in K-Town and a “second U.S. flagship” along Manhattan’s Third Avenue.
“The bb.q in our name stands for ‘Best of the Best Quality’, and that’s exactly what you can expect from every one of our restaurants,” the company’s website states.
