Offering everything from cannabis flower to concentrates, vape products and edibles, the store will be located inside a former Duane Reade and will be open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

“I really want to make sure that I listen to this neighborhood,” Connor said. “There are people here that care about what's going on here… This is a historical place that I have been blessed and honored to have to open to be actually one of the first court license holders.” “We are, for all intents and purposes, a pharmacy-style business — everything that we do is secure and is tracked from what's called seed to sale. And so everything that we do is monitored by the state,” Lewis said. “Our security is most likely going to be, probably, the highest on the street as a result primarily of regulation. And then we're going on top of that to do some additional security.

At the meeting Wednesday, there was little pushback from attendees, and the store’s team won the praises of the committee, including chair Mar Fitzgerald, who praised them on the outreach they had done so far in reaching out to the community.
