The easy version of this story is a mystery: Rose Marie, the Southern-inspired spot at 524 Lorimer Street, closes June 13, and something new takes the space. The real version is stranger and a little sad, because the people replacing Rose Marie are the people who built it. The same owners are shutting their own year-old experiment and reverting the room to the safe, proven brand it was supposed to be a break from.
