I spoke with someone at NYC Icy the other day and asked if there was any truth to the rumors that they'd be closing for the season and possibly/probably not opening again. She informed me that they wouldn't be closing at all! Lemon Basil Ice in December!
This is wonderful news for a great local business that has struggled a bit since arriving in (well, near) Kensington. If you still haven't made the trek, you really are missing out. It's some of the best water ice I've ever had, and for $5 they make a pretty mean shake too.
NYC Icy is located near the corner of Church and Coney Island Avenues.

YAY! That's fantastic news. We live right around the corner & I've developed an icy sparkler fixation. Plus, everyone who works there is so nice!!
Great news... I love this place. And yes, they are super nice!
Kensington blog not closing!
They should have opened on Cortelyou Road where there is more foot traffic and they would have had a considerable number of customers stopping in after lunch and dinner at any one of the eateries or bars over that way.
Thanks for letting us know. I posted this on the KARMABrooklyn blog and linked it to your post.
good shit.
Jenna - realtors and landlords have been smelling blood in the water on Cortelyou for years. No little ice cream shop was gonna be able to cover their nut over there.
