So they're opening up a second store? Because I know they have one in Rockefeller Plaza.

No - this will be a replacement for the Rockefeller Plaza store.

Bet Viz will cringe when they are surrounded by manga they can't edit,westernize and dumb down.

The other store was nice but a store on Ave of the Americas is awesome. Such a nice location for bookstore. Now I will have a reason to visit my jobs NYC location more often.

Does anyone know how far away the new store is from the old one?

I just need to know if its within walking distance, or how long it would take to walk there. o.o;

Yeah they need to open a store in Baltimore or DC next. And instead of a second Kinokuniya, there needs to be another Book-Off in NYC.

The new location is about 15 blocks from the old one -- it's now right across from Bryant Park.

DAMNIT, I leave the city to go back to school on September 1st. What bad timing. D:

Ah, well, I guess I'll be cabbing it there. (Which probably isn't much better. Anime hyper)

15?!?

The old store is on 49th, between 5th and 6th. The new one will be what, Avenue of Americas and 41st. So just eight blocks at the most.
