The broker's signage mentions that the space is avaiable for restaurant or retail use. The online listing states that "all uses considered" for the 2,800-square-foot space.
The 7-Eleven closed after 11 years. The owner told EVG's Stacie Joy that rampant theft was the cause for the closure.
The corner space was previously Bar on A, and the mystery 11th Street side was Angels & Kings, Pete Wentz's former emo hang.
Meanwhile, the former 7-Eleven on the Bowery remains on the rental market.
And what are the other two former East Village 7-Elevens now?
The space at 37 St. Mark's Place is Reiwatakiya, which sells lifestyle and beauty products from Japan and Korea. And at 239 E. 14th St., the old 7-Eleven is in use by the Upright Citizens Brigade to teach comedy classes — because nothing teaches timing like a place that used to be open 24/7!
