Dueling business awnings on Avenue A



Now, to the business awning news. As previously mentioned, the owners of Top A Nails are moving into the empty retail space next to their existing shop on Avenue A between St. Mark's Place and Ninth Street...

And yesterday afternoon, workers put up the new awning for 139 Avenue A... right next to the existing awning at No. 137...



Which one do you prefer?

As for No. 137, the listing shows an asking rent of $6,800.

No. 139 last housed Sustainable NYC, the eco-minded general store and café that closed for good last summer.

    Is that low for that spot? Not low in terms of what's rational, but for that spot with greedy landlords?

    Hmmm. Tough call. I'll get back to you after my afternoon coffee.
