Medusa: Pizza coming to a Fishtown corner

Medusa will be run by a partnership that includes the wife of the owner of the popular Joe's Pizza on 16th Street near Sansom.

For just about two years now, plans have been underway to convert a former meat warehouse at York and Gaul Streets in Fishtown - across from 2424 Studios and Mugshot Diner - into a huge pizza parlor.

Now there is some info to share.

It will be called Medusa, and it will be run by a partnership that includes Casimira Villico, whose husband owns the popular Joe's Pizza on 16th Street near Sansom.

It will have not one but two ovens - one wood-fired, one gas-fired brick for broiling.

Menu will include pizza as well as other oven-baked foods.

Expected opening is unknown - perhaps the early fall.
