The former Swiss Institute space on the southeast corner of Second Avenue and St. Mark's Place is getting a temporary tenant this weekend — with some mutant turtles moving in.
Paramount is bringing its "World of TMNT" promotion to 130 Second Ave. as part of New York Comic Con weekend.
The Splinter and Sons Bodega pop-up runs Friday through Sunday, starting at noon each day.
Visitors can play Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video games, take part in photo ops and pick up exclusive merch, etc.
As previously reported, the nonprofit contemporary art institution closed its East Village space on July 5 after eight years, ahead of a move to a new home on the Bowery.
In August, leasing materials for the two-level, 7,200-square-foot space advertised "all uses considered."
Maybe that includes becoming a perpetual pop-up space.
