Former Zum Schneider space now for lease on 7th Street and Avenue C

A for-lease sign recently arrived on the storefront on the northwest corner of Avenue C and Seventh Street — the former Zum Schneider. 

The EVG reader who shared this photo said this is the first time the space has been on the market these past 20-plus months. The posted sign doesn't list any details about the type of tenant desired. (The space is vented for cooking.)

Zum Schneider, the popular biergarten and restaurant, closed here after 20 years in late February 2020. According to Zum Schneider owner Sylvester Schneider at the timethe co-op's lawyer stated that the building had no intention to renew the lease. (Zum Schneider continues to host various pop-up events in Brooklyn and NYC.)

In November 2020, a jokester attached a fake sign to the storefront stating that a McDonald's was opening here in January 2021.

I know the place could be a shit show, but damn, I miss their food. Really not a whole lot of good German food in Manhattan any more...

I live across the street from this corner. I honestly don't miss the shit show that was this place even though it did seem lively and jovial inside. It is my sincerest hope whomever signs this lease and operates their business moving forward is not only a good, fellow neighbor but also someone whom is considerate, especially during late nights when some us are trying to remain asleep.
