This bites: Flame Job leaves East Second Street storefront



Flame Job, longtime designers of custom-made fangs and gothic goods at 170 E. Second St., closed up shop for good at the end of February. There was talk of a new shop on the Lower East Side, but that hasn't materialized just yet…



They are still around, though, for custom fangs and leather, if the need beckons…check out their Facebook page for contact info.

As for this address between Avenue A and Avenue B, Jared Kushner of the Kushner Companies paid $17.5 million for 170-174 E. Second St. back in December.

As of now, we don't know why Flame Job closed, so we need to hold off on our "Bloodsucking landlord boots custom fang makers" headline.
