Real-estate offices invade the boutique-filled block of East 9th Street

There are two newcomers to the boutique-filled block of East Ninth Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue… given the rising rents, makes sense that we'd find two real-estate offices opening shop along here…



Universal Realty Group takes over the space left behind by Azure, the skin care and laser center and thrift shop… And up the block is Next Step Realty …



According to the Next Step website: "The Next Step Realty finds apartments for recent college graduates relocating to Manhattan."

In new non-real-estate businesses on the block … Honest Chops, billed as "the first all-natural halal meat store in Manhattan," recently opened… and VERA MEAT has launched a second shop at No. 305.

So vampires DO exist, just not in the guise in which we were taught. Too bad there's nothing we can wear around our necks to drive them away.

"The Next Step Realty finds apartments for recent college graduates relocating to Manhattan."

That made me throw up a little in my mouth.

Flashback! The first one is in the old Gold Bar space.

Oh God, it's bad enough the yahoo hordes infest the 'hood, but now it's being made easier for them?? As for Vera Meat, maybe they'll finally get that damn signboard out of the way of pedestrian traffic like other businesses on that street. I knock it over every chance I get, but they don't seem to get the idea...
