Union Square coffee shop Bloc 11 is celebrating its sixth birthday today and shared this photo on Instagram of what the space looked like before the 2007 opening. It had previously been a bank but was already vacant when owners Tucker Lewis and Jennifer Park (who also own Diesel in Davis Square) signed the lease in late 2006. The bank's heavy vault door remains near the back of the shop, opening into a cozy seating area.
