In late December, The 2nd Ave. Smoke Shop & News closed due to a rent hike at 89 Second Ave. near East Fifth Street.

However, the owners found something in their price range nearby ... on the east side of Second Avenue past East Fourth Street where Gelato Ti Amo recently shuttered.

The Smoke Shop & News is now open, and selling the usual, such as gum, water and sodas, water pipes for tobacco, and periodicals like Time Out New York, Escorts and She-Male.

S & P Liquor & Wine back in business on East 5th Street for real

OK, back in October we pointed out that S & P Liquor & Wine at 300 E. Fifth St. just east of Second Avenue had reopened after the city closed the business for a structural issue in one of the apartments in the building above…

Unfortunately, they had to close again for further repairs in October.

But! EVG readers Steven and Moe both told us that S & P reopened last Friday … in total, they missed about four months of income due to the city-mandated closure.

While this is good news for S & P, Jamie the check-chasing guy next door is still operating from the van outside while waiting for repairs to be completed in his storefront.

3 small businesses temporarily closed due to structural issues at 300 E. 5th St.
