CW Pencil Enterprise, an amazing Lower East Side pencil shop has sadly closed its doors due to the lack of foot traffic due to the pandemic.

Caroline Weaver founded this unique shop on Forsyth Street in 2014 (original location seen in our first photo) and moved to its larger lower Orchard Street #storefront (seen in top photo) in 2017. 

Today, we passed by to see the @cwpencilenterprise Orchard Street shop mostly empty except for some furniture for sale and boxes outside with free giveaways. It saddens us to see this quirky shop close its doors as we remember when we first discovered it.
