Utrecht is moving away from Fourth Avenue

As you may have noticed, Utrecht opened a new store on East 13th Street between University and Fifth Avenue earlier in the summer...


Now, it appears that the longtime arts supply store will be leaving its Fourth Avenue home... store for rent lease have gone up...


Not much info, such as price, on the listing... though it does note that "venting is possible" ...

Meanwhile, this will make the second large storefront available for rent along Fourth Avenue ... Dryden Gallery recently moved to a new location on East 12th Street...

  1. Another asset to the community forced out by greedy landlords.

  2. Far from it (although that is the case all over the neighborhood).

    Utrecht had the opportunity to move to a much larger space on 13th - nobody "forced" them out - they chose to move to a larger space, and that store is already open, which is why the hours are reduced on the 4th Ave. store.

    Rent was staying the same at this location.
