Smoke Shop & Convenience Inc. slated for 14th Street



The coming-soon signage is up at 246 E. 14th St. between Second Avenue and Third Avenue ... announcing the ever-popular shops that sell smoking supplies, sodas, beers, etc.

I believe the previous tenant here was a discount place called Gift Mart. (Anyone?)

  1. Remember when they used to call these stores "head shops"?

  2. Previous tenant was a bag and suitcase store. They had a going-out-of business sale for maybe a couple of weeks, accompanied by a boom box playing a recording of someone urging people to come inside and browse the discounted stock.
