Something new on Troost?

An elderly neighbor of mine likes to talk about a long-forgotten restaurant at 31st and Troost called Norman's, which served a complete fried chicken dinner for under $2. It's been decades since Troost was a dining destination, so it's hard to imagine that it was once a vital entertainment district with movie theaters, nightclubs and popular dining spots like the Bluebird Cafeteria.
A long-vacant venue at 3647 Troost, which was last operated as a combination deli and ice cream shop, seems to have some signs of life at last. Someone is doing some interior renovations to the storefront space. Anyone know what's going on there?
