The former Blue Sky Diner, 49th Avenue and 21st Street, Hunters Point, has been mostly empty beginning in the 1990s, but in 2010-2011 it took a star turn as the upscale M(agasin). Wells Restaurant, featuring haute cuisine and snobby service. In the summer of 2011, M. Wells’ owners announced they were moving out (seeking another space in the neighborhood).
So, the 1954 Mountainview has returned to its usual role: an abandoned luncheonette in an odd corner of western Queens.

Kevin, I love me some diners. Why can’t this one succeed?
