Pamela Bicket, a Springs architect working on the design of the two spaces, said under East Hampton Village code the space that had been used as the Halsey McKay Gallery could not be used in the same way as the former Bucket's Deli space, but instead will be a place to sell pre-packaged baked goods and sandwiches. It will also be a "dry" gift store, where they plan to sell cookies, granola, gift boxes, high end coffee, and more.

In addition, Mary's Marvelous will be expanding its online offerings as well.
