One Of The Bowery’s Most Unique Storefronts Moves To A Less-unique Space
We were sorry to see that Globe Slicers has moved from its longtime home at 266 Bowery between Houston and Prince. (H/T to our friend Alex, who first noted this on Instagram.)
In true Globe Slicers style, there's a painted handwritten message on the sign noting a move down the Bowery to No. 184 — alongside some more standard signage.
The business dates to 1947, though it's not clear how long it had been at No. 266.
The building also carried some music history. Known as "The Blondie Loft," it's where the band worked on its first record in the mid-1970s. In a 2022 EVG Instagram comment, Chris Stein recalled the retail space as "a very ancient liquor store" around 1975-76 — and said the building was "totally haunted."
Back in 2022, EVG's Stacie Joy documented the delightfully cluttered shop.
Flashback!
Slowly but surely, many of these old storefronts are being replaced, and we can see, say, a hot sculpt workout place here offering infrared technology.
Another one of those storefronts that felt like it had always been there ... soon to be something else.
