A tipster tells us that the East Village residents behind The Immigrant, the small wine bar at 341 E. Ninth St., will also rent the space next door ... which was most recently the clothing boutique Change of Season.
We understand that the concept will be similar to the low-key atmosphere of the Immigrant, though with more of an emphasis on beer rather than wine. Look for this application to appear on the next CB3/SLA docket.
Although we don't have a lot of direct experience with The Immigrant, we're told that they pick up as much of their supplies as possible from businesses such as Russo's that are within a few blocks of here...

Here here. Good luck to them. Low-key and local. Good stuff.
Immigrant is good people! Definitely low key and very respectful of the neighbors. Go in there any night after 11pm and you'll find bartenders, waiters and even local business owners relaxing after work. Bring on the suds!
Great bar, good people.
I saw a photo of the left storefront of 341 East 9th Street from the late 1960s, when it was Nick's Coffee Shop. There was Nick leaning on a railing (now gone) and his dog in the doorway. So many architectural details have disappeared or been damaged since then.
Wasn't this the former location of Enchantment?
