Opened by Morris Cohen back in 1937, beloved Lower East Side candy store Economy Candy is about to celebrate its 80th anniversary in the neighborhood. To celebrate, the family-owned shop recently upgraded their storefront sign with a massive retro-styled logo with the same appearance as the original version.
As a birthday present to ourselves, we have given our storefront a facelift to restore some old school charm. The new design, which was installed yesterday, was inspired by the 1960s design of our store when it was in its original location just a few doors down from our current home at 108 Rivington St.
