Shoe gazing

The Liberty Convenient Store on First Avenue near Seventh Street closed last summer...



The location is now home to a children's shoe store that doesn't appear to have a name just yet...

Another new convenience store for First Avenue

The former location of Wilfred's Tailors at 149 First Avenue near Ninth Street will soon be a convenient store.



This spot was vacant for some time since Wilfred's moved to 23rd Street. Well, uh, at least it's not another Momofuku?

A new convenient store for First Avenue

The former Health Conscious Express at 45 First Avenue between Second Street and Third Street is becoming a convenient store...convenient for people who don't feel like walking four storefronts to the south to shop at NY Village Deli.

And the new place will deliver, the sign says.
