Owned by the same family for 54 years, this single story building, located on the southwest corner of St. Marks Place and First Avenue, presents a distinct opportunity for an investor or end-user to establish a retail or food and beverage presence.
The property is currently constructed as a single story, 1,350 square foot building with a large usable basement. Investors have a unique value-add opportunity to either reposition the retail or monetize 4,150 square feet of air rights in the future.
The retail climate has changed and is filled with overwhelming competition and challenges. Small local stores keep losing ground to big corporate chains.
We should all be proud of the trailblazing, ground breaking and revolutionary role that the food store played in the launching of the natural foods movement. Now organic and plant-based natural foods are everywhere.
The space will be made available for rent.
We will have 36 public programs for all ages, including performances, lectures, workshops, author readings, and films, as well as tables from local organizations, and art installations by 15 local artists and groups.
In addition, we are also working with local galleries and organizations on our first ever Gallery Walk. Stop by the library to pick up a Gallery Walk flyer, which you can have stamped at each gallery you visit. Visit at least four of the participating galleries between Dec. 1 and 15, and you can enter a library raffle for some fabulous prizes!

Established earlier this year within the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, the Office of Nightlife serves as a central point of contact between City agencies, nightlife business owners, residents, employees, and patrons, promoting a safe and vibrant nightlife scene beneficial to businesses and communities across the five boroughs.
Led by the Office of Nightlife’s senior executive director Ariel Palitz, this listening session is designed to inform the Office of Nightlife as it pursues policy recommendations and long-term solutions to ensure the vitality of New York’s nightlife. The Office of Nightlife welcomes all New Yorkers to share feedback on topics such as quality of life, safety, regulations, enforcement, and the role nightlife plays in fostering creativity and social cohesion.
Please join New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer and State Senator Brad Hoylman for a discussion on the future of rent regulation in New York City, featuring Delsenia Glover of Tenants and Neighbors, Sheila Garcia of CASA and Aaron Carr of Housing Rights Initiative.
Our speakers will discuss how loopholes and fraud contribute to the ongoing weakening of New York’s rent regulation laws, and how communities across New York City can advocate to repeal Vacancy Decontrol, the Preferential Rent, and the 20 percent Vacancy Bonus in the State Legislature.
The deck is stacked against tenants, and it’s time to fight back!
When: Nov. 28, 2018
6 p.m. — Doors Open
6:30 p.m. — Event begins

The employees at the Red Apple Barbershop, west of the string of shuttered shops, fear the 10-year-old shop could be next.
“Most of the foot traffic is on the road,” said Michael Vostok, the shop’s manager. The street pattern for construction sends passersby into a pathway in the streets and makes it difficult for Stuyvesant Town residents — critical clientele for the retailers — to both see and reach the shop.

On the very street where Andy Warhol once lived and other artists like Basquiat and Haring exchanged ideas with musicians and writers, a new legacy is born.
The developer is “not authorized to remove and/or alter the gate that sits at the entrance to the alley … [and] do not have the right to advertise the alley as ‘private’ to potential buyers,” according to court papers.
The developer of 1 Great Jones Alley cannot even allow cars to sit and idle in the space — without the consent of 684 Broadway, the suit contends.
The co-op wants the condo’s misleading ads to end, and are asking a judge to order 1 Great Jones Alley to tell their residents no cars, or changes, will be permitted.
“The board believes that part of the alley and gate belongs to 684 Broadway, and felt that they had to file this lawsuit to protect their property rights,” said 684 Broadway in a statement via its lawyer, Robert Brown.
It would be a generous overstatement to suggest that Miss Kita the Wonder Dog makes more than a cameo appearance, but she is beautiful and we love her and couldn't be more proud.
He was originally from Chile, and everyone called him Chile. He has lived on the block for decades, and he had two sweet dogs, Diego and Dante, who are now in need of a home.
I feel sad that he didn't make it home to Chile. He had a cat, too, but he had already given the cat to a neighbor on the block because it was going to be hard enough for him to deal with getting the dogs from the plane to where he was going in Chile. They were his babies. He loved these dogs and would want them to go to a good home.
Everyone who walked down East 12th Street between A and B would have met him and Diego and Dante at some point.
