Closed for Business: Rita Knox Realty, 241 Fifth Avenue
Thursday, December 13, 2024 at 8:17AM 
Rita Knox Realty, on the well-trafficked corner of Fifth Avenue and Carroll Street, has been packed up and shut down. According to a message on the real estate agent's website, the company has gone entirely online after 27 years in the space.
I was always mildly intrigued by this storefront, largely due to the fact that there never really seemed to much going on inside, and was also pleased that they kept the old neon vertical sign for the liquor store that previously occupied the space.
As always, it will be very interesting to see what ends up taking over the space. If Moutarde is indeed closed across the street, then that's two of the most prime (and presumably expensive) corner storefronts in the neighborhood for rent, right across the street from each other.

Wow, I can't believe they closed! I used them to find my apartment--which was on the same block--back in 1997. It was the last business on that side of the block from those days and now it's gone.
