BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, Brooklyn (PIX11) — It’s a neighborhood fixture that’s in danger of closing down for good.
Nicholas Brooklyn has served the Bedford-Stuyvesant community for 52 years. Now, the people of Brooklyn are fighting to keep it open.
It’s best known for the health and beauty products sold there— all organic. However, the store also hosts pilates and yoga classes along with community events.
Sections of the store are available for partners to sell handmade jewelry and homemade soup.
Founded in 1974 by Nicholas, who sold health and wellness products out of his car trunk, the store has grown into what it is today.
But, because of rising costs and changing times, Nicholas Brooklyn is in danger of closing its doors forever unless the community steps in to help.
