Moscot's Move

Last calendar month I wrote about the demise of 69 West 14th St as well as its tenement neighbors. At that time, nine storefronts had been shuttered, as well as developer Extell volition probable demolish the buildings. Now at that topographic point are ten.



Sol Moscot was (from what I tin tell) the terminal tenant inward the buildings, making them directly clear for destruction.

And Moscot has moved upward sixth Avenue, into the mini-mall construction built a few years agone past times the Stonehenge Group.



Stonehenge is the same grouping that cleared all the pocket-sized businesses out of a edifice they purchased on ninth Avenue as well as 18th Street. It was a deed that broke the hearts of many local people. That was years ago. Since then, they set inward a Wells Fargo bank, only all of the remaining spaces yet sit down empty as well as wasted.

Stonehenge besides quintupled the rent on Colony Records, putting them out of Times Square afterward lx years. Has anything permanent moved into that spot, or is it yet revolving vacation pop-ups?

Anyway, I promise Moscot got a good, long lease at 555 sixth Ave. It's getting hence y'all can't rest anywhere for long inward this town.
