Changes are afoot in two of the largest (and currently vacant) restaurant spaces in Jackson Square. First, it’s looking likely that Quince will be moving into the Myth space (all details are TBD at the moment), and Myth’s former executive chef, Sean O’Brien, is opening a restaurant in Scott Howard space called Zinnia. The restaurant is going to get a little design refresh, and O’Brien said dinner will probably start being served in the fall.

• Myth/Quince, 470 Pacific Ave. at Montgomery

• Zinnia, 500 Jackson St. at Montgomery
