Retail space at 4 St. Mark's Place, onetime home of Trash & Vaudeville, is for rent again

The parlor level of the landmarked 4 St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue is now looking for a new tenant.

Chi Snack Shop, which arrived here along with the Imogene boutique back in the fall, is gone.



The asking rent is $140 per square foot, according to the retail listing.

Wanyoo, Asia’s largest gaming cafĂ© chain, is in the lower level, having opened this past Dec. 31. This outpost, which reportedly signed a 20-year lease here, is temporary closed during the COVID-19 PAUSE.

Until February 2016, 4 St. Mark's Place housed Trash & Vaudeville for 41 years. The store relocated to 96 E. Seventh St. in 2016.

The Hamilton-Holly House (aka 4 St. Mark's Place), built in 1831, was once owned by Alexander Hamilton’s son. The building, which changed hands for $10 million in the spring of 2016 for $10 million, also underwent a gut renovation and expansion.

As previously reported, developer Real Estate Equities Corporation aims to transfer air rights from No. 4 to add square footage to their office building coming to the northeast corner of Third Avenue and St. Mark's Place.

Under terms of the air-rights transfer, 5 percent of the $4 million sale will go into a dedicated account for the landmark to maintain its upkeep. The City Planning Commission will cast their vote at a later date as part of the city’s Uniform Land Use Review Procedure.
