Newsstand, Union Square Park, NYC
Beginning in 2007, the city began to replace various old newsstands throughout Manhattan and the boroughs with glass and steel boxes by CEMUSA, which operate as franchise locations. The ramshackle old Newsstands were mainly privately-owned small businesses and the owners kept them for generations. Sadly this green, oval-shaped newsstand, recently closed and construction began to remake the location into a stand selling nuts. We will miss this #newsstand! #storefront #disappearingfaceofnewyork #unionsquare

Oh my! I love this newsstand! Thank you for posting, James and Karla. It will never be forgotten in Union Square's history because the reason for that is because businesses like that have not been running well like they used to and news nowadays is on television and digitized online.
