Greenhouse Restaurant

Facing objection from neighboring businesses, a public hearing for a new outdoor restaurant in Edgartown was continued last week after the zoning board of appeals asked the applicants to think through their seating plan more thoroughly.

Brothers Patrick and Theodore Courtney applied to convert a greenhouse tucked off South Water street into a summer restaurant. The plan calls for 40 seats inside and out, and a grilling area beneath a covered porch.

The hearing will continue on April 20 at 7 p.m. before the board of appeals.
