West 117th’s fast-food makeover

Changes are coming for three fast-food restaurants along a short section of a

Hut at left will be replaced by an urgent care center while the Arby’s at right
will be razed and replaced with a new-style Arby’s. Less than 1,000 feet
north, a Wendy’s is also getting a new appearance (Google).
