Norman's Sound & Vision has closed

Back in May, our friend Alex at Flaming Pablum first reported the news that Norman's Sound & Vision was closing and moving to Williamsburg ... the Brooklyn location is open, and the Cooper Square storefront is for rent...

Anyway, a few weeks ago, a clerk told us the last day here was Aug. 16 ... so we stopped by this evening for one last look. Maybe pick up a few .50 records... but we found that the place had already been cleaned out...

The new Brooklyn location is at 555 Metropolitan Ave. between Lorimer and Union ...

Norman's Sound & Vision is for rent

Earlier in the week, our friend Alex at Flaming Pablum brought the news that Norman's Sound & Vision was closing and moving to Williamsburg ... the Brooklyn location is open, and now the Cooper Square storefront is for rent...

The East Village location was expected to close in August.

Meanwhile, not necessarily newsy, but the Rockit Scientist space around the corner on St. Mark's Place is also for rent. Rockit closed last month, as Jeremiah first reported...

We're hopeful that owner John Kioussis will decide reopen somewhere else in the neighborhood when the time is right ...
