About Sofaclub, a legal cannabis shop opening this fall on Avenue B

Photos and reporting by Stacie Joy

Sofaclub Cannabis is set to open this fall at 229 Avenue B near 14th Street. 

Ownership has secured a CAURD adult recreational use license from the state for the retail establishment. This marks the furthest east into the East Village for a legal operation. (Downtown spots include Gotham at 3 E. Third St. near the Bowery and Housing Works on Broadway at Eighth Street.) 

Co-owner Max Tsiring previously founded Artifact New York, an exclusive designer archive. (He also plays in the band Kitten.)
This new cannabis shop will be "design-oriented, classy, minimalist and stylish," Tsiring said. "I'm so excited to be part of a neighborhood I've hung out in and loved my whole life."

Tsiring and his business partner are hoping for a Nov. 1 debut. 

The storefront was previously Everytable.
