[Updated] Former Sustainable NYC space for lease



The for rent sign has arrived at 139 Avenue A, previously home to Sustainable NYC the past seven years between St. Mark's Place and East Ninth Street.

The sign just arrived, and so the listing hasn't made its way to the Douglas Elliman website yet. Updated: The rent is $12k a month.

The eco-minded general store and café closed back at the beginning of August after waning sales and missed rent payments.

And some related reading from the Times in 2007 … when the address was home to Alt Coffee … because someone usually mentions Alt Coffee in relation to this address.

  1. Ever want to open a bar, brewery, or moonshine themed boutique? Now is your chance! Located in the heart of Manhattan's alcohol district, this prime location is ready to party! Walls are a plenty and are perfect for plasma tvs, surround sound, karaoke, or just plain screaming. Bathrooms are brand new and can accommodate large quantities of urine, feces, vomit, and sex crimes!

    What's obviously coming next will be "UNSUSTAINABLE."
