Frank DePasquale Continues to Build North End Empire

Frank DePasquale, already behind Bricco, Mare, and a number of other ventures in the North End and beyond, has purchased the space of the recently shuttered Ida's, a restaurant that had been open for more than 60 years. NorthEndWaterfront.com shares the agenda from tomorrow's meeting of the North End/Waterfront Neighborhood Council, which indicates that DePasquale wants to transfer the wine and malt license from Ida's, add cordials to the license, and add a 48-seat seasonal patio. No information about a restaurant name or concept is available at this time.
