Village Cigars has been in business in Greenwich Village since 1922. We absolutely love this iconic #storefront and chose it as the cover image for our book “Store Front II- A History Preserved”. Not only is the storefront unique in that it is triangular in shape, but its sidewalk out front bears a special plaque marking the location of the Hess Triangle, which at 500-square inches was once the smallest piece of private land in NYC. The former owner of Village Cigars bought the 500-square inch property from the Hess estate for $1,000 in 1938 and kept the plaque and the small piece of New York history.
• Signed Prints of our photo of Village Cigars are available at our Store Front Photography Exhibition at @villageworksnyc including archival 11x14 inch for $119 and 11x14 inch mounted & framed in white letterbox frame for $199. Larger limited edition prints up to 48 inches width are also available upon request.
