Recently I passed by 114 Chambers Street. In a 2023 wallet card megapost I showed this building, with a sign from a short-lived aquarium from the 1980s, and a shoe store sign from the 1970s. Those signs are long gone, and peeking through is a sign from their predecessor..
Harvan Sporting Goods operated here in the 1950s and 1960s. They were a prominent seller of firearms, as all the references to the business are from various message boards and websites dealing with vintage firearms. Here's a photo of a Harvan catalog, available for $50 on eBay, with the 114 Chambers address.
The building sure has changed a lot in two years... but the graffiti on top seems to have survived.
