Hi all! We made a new app – for our NYC Vintage Map . Or actually, two apps, because there is one for iPhone and one for Android . The map lists all the city’s vintage, resale, and thrift stores. And we have a new feature: picks and recommendations by well-known vintage aficionados.
We hope the apps will get more people to discover these small, sustainable, and independent stores. There are over 260 of them in total, nicely spread-out in all five boroughs. What is your favorite?
Imagine if you could get an email alert every time a vintage item you have been hunting for is listed online? That is what we have built! The new Gem feature is called New Items Alerts and you can try it in the new version of the app , or at gem.app .
