More change on Brighton Beach Avenue

I'm back in Manhattan Beach for a short stay and noticed a few changes:
1) there appears to be no construction developments at Odessa or the adjacent buildings
2) The western neighbor to Ouri's Fruit Market which was being used as a temporary liquidation store is now a hair salon. That completes the apparent unknown goal of having one hair salon per block between Brighton 15th and Coney Island Avenue. It seems a tad bit ridiculous.
3) Two stores west of the Oceana where a 24 hr corner deli has stood for years is now a fruit store. The airiness of the layout is interesting and is better given the odd triangular shape of the building.
4) Citibank is now open at Berta's.
