Lucky Cleaners Is Still Open, But Its Days Could Be Numbered

You may know it better by the quirky sign with the classic font, albeit with letters that have seen better days.

Its official name is Lucky Laundry (1215 8th Avenue, corner of 13th Street), and it is officially on the market. According to the listing, rent on the 1,080-square-foot space is negotiable and most uses of the space will be considered, but the “landlord does NOT want another [l]aundromat.”

We reached out to the cleaners via phone, and an attendant named Mary told us she was unaware of the building’s sale.

If it does indeed close, you won’t be short on laundry options — 8th Avenue is home to quite a few places, including nearby Green Cleaners at 1202 8th Avenue (at 12th Street) and Suds on 8th Ave at 1521 8th Ave (at 15th Street).
