Wanyoo Cyber Cafe arrives at the landmarked 4 St. Mark's Place



News arrived back in February 2018 that Wanyoo Cyber Cafe was taking part of the retail space in the renovated 4 St. Mark's Place.

The Wanyoo signage finally arrived on Friday, with a grand opening close behind (they are officially open)...



Wanyoo, Asia’s largest gaming café chain, has a location in Flushing. They reportedly signed a 20-year lease for this space in the landmarked building between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.

Until February 2016, 4 St. Mark's Place housed Trash & Vaudeville for 41 years. The store relocated to 96 E. Seventh St.

The Hamilton-Holly House (aka 4 St. Mark's Place), built in 1831, was once owned by Alexander Hamilton’s son. The building, which changed hands for $10 million in the spring of 2016 for $10 million, also underwent a gut renovation and expansion.

Chi Snack Shop moved into the parlor-level space with the Imogene boutique back in the fall...

Former Trash & Vaudeville space on St. Mark's Place to become Wanyoo cyber café



Wanyoo, a Shanghai-based cyber cafe chain, has signed a lease for the two-level retail space at 4 St. Mark's Place.

The cafe, which has a location in Flushing, reportedly signed a 20-year lease for 2,600 square feet on the ground floor and 1,400 square feet in the basement of the under-renovation landmarked building between Second Avenue and Third Avenue.
