A quick look at Manhattan Pawffice, opening next week at 20 St. Mark's Place

Back on Oct. 3, we reported that a doggy daycare was the new tenant for the long-empty retail space at 20 St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue. 

More specifically, this will be Manhattan Pawffice, a sibling to Brooklyn Pawffice out in Williamsburg. 

Per their NYC website: "Welcome to our dog daycare and boarding facility located in the heart of the East Village. With spacious play areas and a vast backyard, your furry friend will have plenty of room to run, play and rest." For anyone curious, there is outdoor space behind the building. 

The building does have outdoor space in the back. (The previous tenant, the Grassroots Tavern, never used it.) 

The Manhattan Pawffice website lists a grand opening on Monday.
The Grassroots Tavern, the last tenant in this lower level of the landmarked building, closed after 42 years in service following New Year's Eve 2017.
