'This prominent corner retail space' still available on Avenue A

On the topic of Avenue A between East Fourth Street and East Fifth Street ... 72 Avenue A at East Fifth Street has been on the market since the East Village Pharmacy moved to East Third Street and Avenue A in 2011.

Massey Knakal now has the listing, which reads:

This prominent corner retail space features frontage on both Avenue A and East 5th Street. The landlord would consider food in this location, however vented cooking is not possible. The soaring ceilings add tremendous appeal, while the wraparound glass frontage provides excellent visibility to a future tenant.

Rent is available upon request.

Meanwhile, there is a rumor that some kind of FroYo operation is moving into the space next door (the other half of the storefront that housed the pharmacy). We haven't heard anything else about this in the past week...
