We've fielded a few questions about Search & Destroy, the punk-vintage emporium that opened in 1992 at 25 St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.
Yuji Umeki, owner of Search & Destroy and Kenka on the lower level, passed away last month.
The arrival of a new sidewalk sandwich board reading "Chaotic Vintage Clothing Store" prompted some readers to ask if the place has a new name (or new owner).
An S&D employee says the sign is meant to describe what potential shoppers can find inside.
