Your chance to 'claim your prized position' on St. Mark's Place and 2nd Avenue



On Wednesday, workers cleaned out the now-former Eastside Bakery (.net?) on the northwest corner of Second Avenue and St. Mark's Place. There are now four empty storefronts here in this Theatre Condo complex.

Cohen's Fashion Optical moved out about two months ago... Michael "Bao" Huynh's Baoguette Cafe around on St. Mark's Place closed last fall... and Timi's Gelateria Classica™ closed in December 2011.

According to the listing at Walter & Samuels:



The listing puts the 1,600 square feet of retail at $400,000 per year – or some $33,000 a month. (This is what the Gap paid here back in the late 1980s.)

There's also a listing on the Winick site... noting four separate spaces, or perhaps, one big one... the marketing flyer says, "Claim your prized position."



As the listing notes: "Hot East Village retail opportunity located on bustling St. Marks Place."

The lone ground-floor tenant here is 7-Eleven, a seemingly popular place...

The only thing I like about 711 is the crusties.

That's about the size of your average American Apparel...

Eastside was convenient but it was dirty - once the entry door was so filthy I just didn't go in,

I hope you New Yorker's are enjoying the attractive new 7-Eleven stores from the great state of Texas!

The crusties are in front of the vacant storefront next to 7-Eleven.

I remember when the space used to be a Gap (until early 2000s?). So it's not all bad...
