Quite a distance from the Bedford L stop and not in the middle of the walking crowd around 7th and Bedford area. Wonder why they put it way out there?
i like kings, i just wish there were a few more of them!
kings is great, but this is probably super needed.
I like Kings too, but for emergencies, this’ll be a much shorter walk for a whole lot of people (especially once these towers fill up). It’ll hopefully keep prices somewhat in check too. Much needed, in my opinion.
King’s Pharmacy is so great though, and I’m pretty sure they sell cigarettes too?
Finally – somewhere close to home the hipsters can use their credit card to buy cigarettes.
You know I kinda hate Duane Reade and try my best not to shop there if at all possible, but the newly revamped ones are pretty nice. Much nicer selection of products, and the stores are laid out in a much better fashion.
