Billed as New York’s first “luxury cannabis and cultural concept store,” Gotham is set to open its doors on the Bowery in downtown Manhattan.
The two-storey retail and gallery space sells cannabis, fashion and lifestyle items and also features art exhibitions. It was designed by Cinema Vitae.
Gotham said its offerings will include New York State’s finest cannabis products, including flowers, edibles, vaporisers, pre-rolls and tinctures. Additionally, the store will debut Gotham Goods, the company’s namesake line of CBD products and accessories.
In addition to evolving the cannabis retail environment, Gotham said it brings back the quintessential in-person shopping experience to create community and connection, much like cannabis does.
“We wanted to create a space that was a first of its kind, uniquely downtown and differentiated from the local head shop,” said Billy Richards, Chief Creative Officer, Gotham. Richards is a hospitality veteran and former director of NYC’s famed Boom Boom Room and Rose Bar. “Gotham is a true concept store where visitors can discover something new, browse high-end brands and enjoy incredible art through a distinctive NYC lens. And, of course, we also sell cannabis.”
