Shiina opens on 3rd Avenue



Shiina, a women's boutique selling clothing, accessories and makeup, has opened at 83 Third Ave. at 12th Street...



Don't know too much about the store just yet... nice to see someone try to make a go of it with a retail shop, though. (Perhaps they could have timed the opening around NYU's schedule. School has adjourned for the summer.)

The space had been vacant here in the base of NYU's Third North dorm since November 2015, when Pushcart Coffee closed after just five months in business. The address was previously home to Just Sweet, which sold bubble tea and desserts.

  1. I can imaging an NYU student living about this store wanting to buy something similar but will order it online rather than taking the elevator to the street level. Retail for the most part is dying, I closed my shop to the public years ago and survive online.

  2. This looks like it's for teens spending mom & dad's $$, and the clothing looks like it would fit anyone up to size 2 or 4.
