3 small businesses temporarily closed due to structural issues at 300 E. 5th St.



The liquor store, check-cashing shop and Today's Cut hair salon at 300 E. Fifth St. just east of Second Avenue remain closed this week.

The city issued a partial vacate order … and several violations ...





In the words of the DOB's ALL-CAP style:

FDNY REQUESTS A STRUCTURAL STABILITY INSPECTION TO APT #7 GUTTED AND CAUSING STRUCTURAL ISSUES IN SURROUNDING APARTMENTS

The three businesses and four apartments in the building are under the vacate orders.

Signs are up at all three businesses noting the temporary closure. (Hopefully it is very temporary.) Here's the sign at the liquor store…



Bourad at Today's Cut is cutting hair five doors to the east at 304 E. Fifth St. in the meantime.

Thanks to Goggla for the photos and tip.

    The check cashing business is working out of a van parked in front of the store. There is a large check cashing sign on the van.
