Rite Aid’s take over of Eckerd apparently made the chain’s owners decide that two RIte Aids within a block of each other were maybe a bit redundant, so the former Eckerd space at 9th Street and 5th Avenue is now up for grabs. (The Rite Aid at 10th Street and 5th Avenue is still going strong, though.) The 11,000-square-foot space (big!) will be leased for a 15-year term, according to broker Joel Karasik of NYC Realty, who says there’s been a far amount of interest from “national firms.” Karasik wouldn’t tell us anything else about what sort of user might take the space except that “it definitely won’t be a drug store.” What would you like to see here?

  1. 4:30, you’re seriously off you’re rocker if you think any of those stores would touch that corner with a 10-foot pole. A 1-second look at the zip code’s demographics by their location research department would scare them off.

  2. I don’t really have a concept of what kindof space 11,000 sf entials, but what about a West Elm?

    I’m not a fan of the store, but seems like a GAP would do well there.

    Can we please all decide right here and now that if it’s a bank, we will boycott it?

    It’s the only way to stop them, i think.
