The former Atomic Passion space is for rent

As Jeremiah pointed out on Friday, Atomic Passion on East Ninth Street has closed... and the space has quickly gone on the market...




I'm curious what happened to the two cutouts who adorned the wall above the store for so many years...

  1. grieve, do you have a list of everything that's closed in the past year due to rent problems? i imagine it would be a pretty sobering list..

  2. I don't, Glamma. I should start keeping track. And it's probably a lot more than we'd want to know about....

  3. A very good friend of Atomic passion got the "P" girl, but I have no idea who got the "A" girl. Those girls materialized out of the blue one morning about 10 years ago. Some anonymous person left them in our gate.

  5. Thanks for your sweet words! We already miss all our wonderful customers and friends we saw every day!
    hopefully we'll be setting up shop at the Brooklyn Flea by July.
