Signage went up Friday for Stuytown Pharmacy at 329 E. 14th St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue.
There's nothing inside the white-box space (most recently home to Hair Trendz) just yet. We haven't spotted any information online about the business.
This arrival comes as more chain drugstores are shutting down locations. Last week, we noted the desolate Rite Aid still hanging on at First Avenue and Fifth Street. (CNN shared this headline on Friday: Why Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aid are closing thousands of drug stores across America.)
While another independent drugstore is a welcome addition to the neighborhood, its business hours, which may not be conducive to everyone's schedule, could potentially be an inconvenience.
The hours listed on the front door are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, and closed on Saturday and Sunday.
