Three-weeks after a still-unexplained explosion, the shelves remain bare at the popular Morton Williams Supermarket at Jerome Avenue and East Kingsbridge Road. Worker’s remain busy at repairing the damage caused by the November 13 explosion, that blew out nearly a dozen store windows and apparently set fire to a section of the stores drop-ceiling. No injuries were reported. The cause of the explosion remains under investigation.
