For nearly three decades, the Housing Works Bookstore has been a downtown New York institution. Browse secondhand books, shop curated clothing, gifts, and housewares, or relax in our Cafe that serves a selection of coffee, craft beer, wine, and light snacks. Check out our calendar for upcoming special events.

Our one-of-a-kind space is also available to rent for weddings and special events. 100% of our profits go to fund Housing Work’s lifesaving services.
