April 3, 2010 Staff Report

Two new Sunnyside stores are soon to open, with another already in operation.

Amazon Pharmacy, yet another independent drug store, is in the midst of opening between 43rd and 44th on Queens Blvd (the old Sleepy’s store).

Meanwhile, a T-Mobile retail store is about to move into the old location of moviebank, between 41st and 42nd on Queens Blvd. The store manager said the cell-phone provider is expected to open this week.

Furthermore, a bodega has finally opened on Skillman Ave. (49th Street), where Christine’s Salon was located.
