Jewels is the new tenant for the former Ben & Jerry's space on St. Mark's Place

You may have noticed that Jewels recently moved a few storefronts to the east on St. Mark's Place ... they made the move to the larger space in early August, though the new sign just arrived for the body jewelry and piercing parlor here between Second Avenue and Third Avenue. (Thanks to Steven for the photo yesterday!)

They quickly took over 24 St. Mark's Place after Ben & Jerry's officially closed at the end of July. 

This also marks the first non-food/"dry" business at the address in nearly 50 years. No. 24 was the Ice Cream Connection in the early 1970s before the owners of Dojo opened the Japanese restaurant here in 1974. 

We've also had a Caffe Bene and Pinkberry and a few other things I'm forgetting here.

Ben & Jerry's peace out of St. Mark's Place



The East Village is without a Ben & Jerry's once again. The family-owned location on St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue is now officially closed. The signage came down this afternoon...



Steven took the top two photos... Lola Sáenz shared this shot...



... and via Derek Berg...



A rep for this location said that the final blow was the break-in/looting here on June 1.

This Ben & Jerry's opened at 24 St. Mark's Place in January 2018.

As noted before, there was a Ben & Jerry's outpost at 41 Third Ave. between Ninth Street and 10th Street for 22 years before its closure in September 2010.

A break-in at Ben & Jerry's on St. Mark's Place



More reader reports are coming in about East Village businesses broken into last night... Ben & Jerry's on St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue took a hit... EVG reader Lola Saénz took these photos...





An ATM on the block was also cleaned out...



There are more reader reports of break-ins, including the Domino's on 14th Street and the Target on 14th and A.

4/20 at Ben & Jerry's on St. Mark's Place



The franchise here between Second Avenue and Third Avenue that opened in January is getting into the spirit of its first 4/20 Day...



There's an additional sign on the front window here at 24 St. Mark's Place showing their solidarity for the National Student Walkout planned on April 20, the anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting...
