New York City\u2019s iconic newsstands are getting a makeover as some owners look for new ways to use the familiar sidewalk kiosks in a changing media landscape.<\/p>\n
In a new article for Curbed, writer Anne Kadet explores how some former newspaper stands are being transformed into caf\u00e9s, specialty shops and other small businesses.<\/p>\n
One example highlighted in the piece is Casa Toscana near Bryant Park, where the owner invested about $150,000 to convert the stand into an Italian caf\u00e9 and says sales have grown more than fivefold.<\/p>\n
But city regulations still limit what many newsstand operators are allowed to sell, creating challenges for those hoping to reinvent the spaces.<\/p>\n
Anne Kadet, a writer for Curbed and author of the Substack newsletter Caf\u00e9 Anne, joined \u201cMornings On 1\u201d to discuss more.<\/p>\n
