LOCAL SPOT WE LOVE: Argosy Book Store
 |
  |
| |116 E 59th St.| |
| The Uptown alternative to The Strand, the smell of old books and paper welcome you the moment you walk into the Argosy Book Store. This old- fashioned place is stacked with rare books and piles of prints that you will not be able to find in other bookstores. The collection is massive but the staff is well-informed, knowing so much about the books they have in store so you will have no problem finding something that satisfies your taste. There are treasures everywhere within the store but the true gems are hidden in the stacks so be sure to look around! |
| Dangerous because once you step in, you will want to buy everything, even with a tight budget. |
