It is being replaced. By Eataly. Look at the format and purpose of Eataly stores. By my estimate, there will be a net increase in quick, prepped food options there than the current food court.
Ive been to eataly in NYC.
Point me to where you can get a meal with drink fr under $8 inside it? And be eating in under 4 minutes?
Some of you dont understand that nobody wants to ban Eataly, we just want to keep fast, affordable options for those days when a fast, affordable option is needed.
"Go to South Station"
"If you want chinese..."
Thats idiotic.
It's about having 30 minutes to grab lunch and needing to do so on a budget.
The food itself doesnt matter, the price and speed does. Nobody is mourning the menu at any of the existing food court stalls, we're mourning the ability to have 30 menu options available in front of us for under $10 in under 5 minutes.
Eataly does not offer the low price nor the fast speed. Period.
Eataly is a destination. The food court is a necessity. Guess what, good cities need to offer both.
