The current home of The Stone is for rent on Avenue C



Late last year, John Zorn announced that The Stone, his experimental performance space on Avenue C (No. 15) at Second Street, would close in its current location in February 2018.

That space is now on the rental market, with a March 2018 move-in, per the listing. Here are a few details about the rental:

PRIME CORNER STORE
1000 sq. feet + 400ft basement.
Currently used as music performance space The Stone
Suitable for retail, office, white box gallery, etc. NO BARS
Rent on demand.

As you can see, the listing says NO BARS.

The Stone will be taking up residence in the New School's Glass Box Theater on West 13th Street beginning in March 2018, as the Voice first reported.

The Stone opened in 2005, and has played hosted to an estimated 7,000 performances.
