Ricky’s is Opening Another Halloween Store Inside the Old Chase Bank on Delancey
This image has been archived or removed.
The defeated storefront of the old Chase Bank on Delancey worked well for the purposes of the Urs Fischer sculpture exhibit. Its armor of tags and paint was easily a textbook example of devolution. But the Gagosian-sponsored art display ended months ago; so, too, the sheath of thick graffiti coverage. Now the alt-retail specialists at Ricky’s are opening another temporary Halloween outpost here and obviously need a clean slate. That means whitewashed exterior and teaser banners.
104 Delancey is the second dedicated Ricky’s Halloween location in the immediate vicinity. Indeed, there’s another temporary Ricky’s three blocks north in Red Square (250 East Houston).
In the meantime, RKF continues to rep the long-vacant property, as previously reported. No long term tenants just yet.
