Signage went up on Saturday (H/T Steven!) for Puff & Pass at 50 Second Ave. adjacent to Proto Pizza at Third Street.
Puff & Pass joins other new like-minded businesses in the East Village, including Smokers Zone 1, Manhattan Smoke Shop, Higher Empire, Paint Puff 'N' Peace, Smart Smokers and Bong World.
No. 50 was previously home to Cloud99 Vapes, which closed in early 2020.

Exactly how many smoke shops are now in our neighborhood?
I'm ready to Gag 'n Pass. Seriously, is this now going to be neighborhood of nothing but bars and smoke shops?!?
Enough.
Exciting to see how we're moving from Starbucks to Smoke Shops!
I would assume that any day now Starbucks will be offering marijuana infused lattes.

Have to agree there; I'm just looking on with borderline horror/amazement.
In the early 1980’s, Korean fruit stands started popping up, almost on every block. In time, many folded cause of too much competition. So instead of venturing out for an apple, you can now take a stroll for a crack pipe and a 40 oz beer. What a world we are living in.
My local & quite observant UPS driver said that all these incoming smoke & head shops are positioning themselves once the lid comes off legalization. My uninformed opinion is that they’re all owned by the same tycoon who prolly has bundles of excess Alibaba cash & needs to take a loss.
