Workers continue 7-Elevening the former J.A.S. Mart on St. Mark's Place


As you may unfortunately remember, we reported that a 7-Eleven will soon open on St. Mark's Place at Second Avenue in the the former J.A.S. Mart. (The official address is 133 Second Ave.)

Workers have been molding the 7-Eleven into shape, as this shot from yesterday by Bobby Williams shows... expect the sign and awning any day or two now ...

    Are you kidding me?
    I used to go there all the time when I lived on 9th St.
    Hope it's a Japanese 7/11 instead of American...

    Sh*t! I loved that JAS Mart, especially when the upstairs part served hot food. Curry Club!

    The only way to stop this madness is to not shop at these 7-11s. And don't let your friends shop there either. It took a decade, but it worked with that Gap on the corner. We gotta start somewhere.

    Are they taking the lower-level space also? Or is JAS Mart keeping that?
