New Store to Open on the UES

JackRabbit is movin' on up to the East Side! While it will not be a deluxe apartment in the sky, it will be a great new store on 85th and Lexington. We are set to open this March, and we will be tracking the new store's progress on this blog. Since I will be the manager at our new digs, I would like to track its evolution. So, here are some photos of the location as it exists now.

<---This is the main entrance. In a past life, this location was a Ricky's. There are still some traces of glitter and makeup on the door.

This lovely, lime green wall will eventually be the cash wrap. -->

<--This is the sales floor, as seen from what will become the shoe department. Could we get any more mirrors? Jeez....

It is a little hard to picture what the store will look like. I did my first walk through of the space today, and it was a little scary. Not only was there glitter and makeup on the door, there was hot pink cobwebbing all over the ceiling.The AC system is hanging out of the wall. There is a truly frightening bathroom situation going on; the likes of which have not been seen since the first Evil Dead film. Speaking of creepy, there were also random bits of the previous store lying
around.

I guess that no one will be able to return those costumes after all. -->

<-- Hopefully, we will be able to put in a water cooler at this location. Somehow I just don't think that this water fountain will work. I am pretty sure that it was installed sometime during the Eisenhower administration.

This view is from the back of the store looking towards the main entrance. Over here will be apparel and the area at right will be the shoe floor. Stay tuned for updates......
