Village Cigars - NYC

[ssjones]

We're re-watching "NYPD Blue (1993-2005). The odd, jerky camera scene opening shots are always interesting, and for a second or two, highlight iconic city locations. Last week, I noticed CBGB's, must have been just before they closed.

Today, (in Season 4), I noticed Village Cigars, on Christopher and 7th Avenue (Greenwich Village) Apparently it has an interesting history.

Its not clear if it is still open.

The Facebook page for the shop makes no mention of the store closing. They don't post much, but the latest post was just on the 4th. I suspect that, for now at least, they're still open.

It’s still open. The owners are nice and the place is an “all purpose“ smoke shop. They have a decent cigar selection when you’re in a pinch.
