It appears that L’atelier du chocolat isn’t the only new business setting up shop along Newark Avenue. A new convenience store recently opened in the former Roflcopter space at 298 Newark Avenue. Located between Third Street and Brunswick, AP Convenience sells all your basics like coffee, milk, pet food, and bread.
Meanwhile, a few blocks away a new pharmacy is set to open at 220 Newark Avenue. The pharmacy is adjacent to Ani Ramen and has been in the works since the summer. The space used to be a part of Brennan’s Florist, but has branched off into its own storefront.
Last but not least — Artistic Smoke Shop is now open at 171 Newark Avenue along the Jersey City Pedestrian Plaza. The tobacco and e-cigarette shop, which opened in late December, is located next to K9dergarten.
