29 Essex Street: Haber's Stationery and Sporting Goods


Viewable on the right side. It was a favorite destination of KVers. Supposedly, Joe Kuperstein once considered becoming an owner. about two years ago from Marsha Algranati Levine:
I lived on Essex St, over Haber's. My mom actually worked in Habers, a pretty short commute. My parents moved into the Seward coop my last year in high school, my mom's still living there. If anyone hasn't been in the old neighborhood for a while, you're in for a big shock, it's changed a lot

Great New LES Book Of Archival Photos


Great new book I got at the Tenement Museum yesterday with old lower east side photos I've never seen before. Can't locate an online site to purchase. It's also available at the South Street Seaport Museum
Brian Merlis gave me permission to post this picture showing a favorite Knickerbocker Village sporting goods and stationery supply destination, Haber's at 29 Essex Street. This was in 1930
