Strand Book Store
Description
Strand Book Store, just off Union Square, has some impressive numbers: 18 miles of 2.5 million new and used books, many at big discounts off cover prices, spread over four floors. This New York treasure—open since 1927 and still run by the family who founded it—sells every kind of book imaginable, from novels to memoirs to art books to historical tomes. For the true book nerds, a rare-book collection in a connected building contains those favorite dusty first editions. There’s a smaller store location on Columbus Avenue on the Upper West Side.
